5 Ways Metal Bands Can Support LGBT Individuals

1. Mention Pride Month, in regards to counterculture, minority taste in music, and the inclusion of minorities such as queer and trans identities.

2. Support charities, such as The Trevor Project and Human Rights Campaign.

3. Sell Pride related band apparel, such as band tees with rainbow colored logos.

4. Don't use the terms gay or sissy when being critical other musicians' styles, or don't be critical at all in inappropriate ways.

5. Be there for all fans, and mention being inclusive in interviews.

Metal is a family.

LGBT is family.

We are all in this together.

There is no room in the world for hate!

Happy Pride!!
