Flowers in bloom at the Dallas Arboretum LGBTQ rights activists are organizing a Let Equality Bloom protest at the Dallas Arboretum on Saturday, March 19, from 10 a.m.
to noon to “bring attention to a workplace culture that rejects equity, inclusion and diversity, all the while receiving funds from the city of Dallas and violating the city’s nondiscrimination ordinance and charter.” The protest will call on the arboretum to announce policy changes and steps that it will take to address its workplace policies that relate to employees’ use of their pronouns and to ensure that the work environment is free from any discrimination based on race, sex, sexual orientation or gender identity.
Organizers encourage all LGBTQ community members and allies to meet outside the main entrance to the Arboretum on Garland Road and to bring signs to be used during the protest.
Additional info about parking and logistics will be posted on Resource Center’s Instagram, Facebook and Twitter pages before the protest.
