As a Q***r person, I mostly just live my life and not consider how my Q***rness might affect the World I navigate. In reality, being a visible and out Q***r makes a great impact, and I take the responsibility very seriously.
The best example is opening a business as a Q***r owner/operator. It did not occur to me that I was creating a safe/inclusive space for other Q***r folx to work at and patronize. Shortly before Broadway opened in 2016, a young person knocked on our door asking if we were hiring. They then explained that their current job was misgendering them regularly. We weren't hiring at that point, but once I realized we needed more, I contacted them and offered them a position.
We often hear from customers that are delighted with the inclusive feeling our little Q***r doughnut shop offers. Sometimes we are accused of "rainbow washing", which if you aren't familiar, is when corporations make their logo a rainbow and promote Pride to gain sales. We are a business, so we obviously are concerned with sales. But since we are Q***r owned and operated, we are rainbows and Q***rs first and foremost, all year 🏳️🌈.
We are looking forward to Pride this Sunday! As your friendly neighbourhood Q***r doughnut shop, we'll be open 8am-4pm for all your breakfast, lunch, iced drink and doughnut needs ❤.
