EP10: SIGBI: Community Building Magic

Life Through a Queer Lens

What if your favorite local café, bookstore, or boutique could transform into more than just a business, but a haven of acceptance and safety for the LGBTQ+ community? Welcome to our enlightening exploration of the Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative (SIGBI), a powerful movement partnering with Yeagermeister to create safe spaces in smaller cities and rural communities. We'll guide you through the fascinating journey, highlighting the significant efforts of the four co-owners of the Stonewall Inn, while stressing the importance of allies in the LGBTQ+ movement.
Ever wondered what it takes for a business to earn the SIGBI Safe Spaces certification? We break down the intricacies of this process, detailing the required training, donations, and the establishment of gender-neutral bathrooms. We also shine a spotlight on the vibrant queer history, including the iconic Cosmopolitan drink, a symbol of pride within the LGBTQ+ community. As we conclude, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the vital role played by SIGBI, particularly in places often overlooked by mainstream media. So join us, as we engage in this vibrant conversation on LGBTQ+ safety, acceptance, and history.
