On Episode #12 of Season Four of Real Talk with Tedi, Tedi is flying solo for this short episode on PRIDE. Tedi shares what PRIDE is, how it all started and why its important (not only in the month of June, but all year round). Included with this episode is a brief history of how the LGBTQ+ movement got started, it's dark history and ways we can all become stronger Allies and supporters of our Queer brothers and sisters.

Tedi also shares his frustration with those who only recognize PRIDE during the month of June and the responsibilities of the Queer people to know and share our history. Included with this episode are several Resources to guide you through PRIDE month and our Queer history (below).
