Rainbow Washing: P*ssed Off or Pleased To See It?

Happy Pride Month everyone! To close off this years pride month, Lucy and Juliet are discussing the intricacies of Rainbow Washing and what it can mean for our community. Whilst some members of the community are happy to see the rainbow flag flying high above businesses, others believe it is a shameful display or capitalising on our lives. There is a lot to cover this week, so get yourself strapped in and lets get going!
