New Orleans Black Pride: BUILD BLACK QUEER FUTURES
About the event
Six years of New Orleans Black Pride. Look what we’ve built together.
In 2020, a Facebook post about creating space for black and brown queer people in New Orleans was shared more than 22,500 times. That summer, we held our first Pride weekend. Here’s what our community made possible in the years that followed.
Our community showed up. In 2024, we welcomed 7,500+ attendees across Pride Weekend. In 2025, 6,300+ people came to our Community Festival, 260 joined us for the summit, and 8 testing partners helped connect people to health resources. In 2026, our Shake the Stigma campaign reached 20,000+ people online.
Our impact reached local businesses and families. In 2025 alone, Pride Weekend supported 16 Black and Brown businesses and generated 300 hotel room bookings. Through our Community Giving Fund, we also provided direct financial assistance to 40+ community members for needs like food, housing, medicine, and transportation.
This GivingTuesday, December 1, we’re raising $10,000 to keep showing up year-round for HIV prevention, Black queer youth leadership, and community care.
If you can, give $25 on December 1. Today, send this to one person you want building Black queer futures with us.
