By Jenise Jackson Blog Content Contributor From 2009 through 2016, Barack Obama declared June to be LGBT Pride Month. Unfortunately, the LGBT community has been snubbed of that official declaration, but that has not stopped members of the community and their allies from kicking off the month of June with the traditional celebration.

By Allison Johnson Blog Content Contributor Yes, another blog post that relates to entertainment. You do not have to know me well to know that movies are a major course of the roadmap to my heart.
