Joe Biden is to host the White House’s largest Pride celebration “in history.”
The LGBTQ+ Pride celebration hosted by Biden will be the largest of its kind “in history” for the White House.
Biden is also set to announce new measures as Thursday’s event is being billed as a celebration of” LGBTQ+ families” and will see performances from singer Betty Who and DJ Queen HD.
As Breitbart reported:
The event will also focus on so-called “book bans” being implemented in parts of the United States, with Biden’s Department of Education to announce the appointment of a new special coordinator who will be tasked with tackling the perceived problem.
“Across the country, our nation is facing a spike in book bans, and these efforts disproportionately target the LGBTQI+ community as well as communities of color,” one Biden admin spokesman said regarding the announcement.
“These aren’t just attacks on the rights of LGBTQI+ Americans; they are part and parcel of a coordinated attack on our democracy,” they added.
