Celebrating Pride Month

This updated collection takes cue from 2024’s theme of Reflect. Empower. Unite. “At a time of division in our country and the world, this year’s theme calls for unity within and throughout the LGBTQIA+ community and is a call to action for ALL allies, especially those in government and the private sector, to demonstrate their alliance with the community-at-large at this critical time in our nation's history.” To that end, RISE is proud to curate this special group of articles highlighting research from across the arts, humanities, and the social and medical sciences, in solidarity and celebration with queer people everywhere.

Prior to this 2024 update, articles examine building communities and resilience, stories of hope and social improvement, and showcase personal narratives and testimonies. They study the ways in which the queer lens has and will continue to further research, and include examples of LGBTQIA+ communities changing history through activism.

RISE is delighted to collaborate with Wiley’s Pride ERG on this collection.
