Rowan also shared an inspiring message on her Instagram about Pride Month, writing, “Maybe less of a state sanctioned, commodified, coopted Happy Pride, and maybe more of a Happy Pride and all of those other, less digestible emotions and languages of queerness that will go unrecognized but not forgotten in a rainbow parade.”

She adds, “Being queer publicly isn’t the same for everyone, having Pride isn’t for every queer person, here’s to those who choose to stay in a closet, whose visibility is a personal risk, the queers who are queer in secret whether by force or choice, this is your family too. w e s e e y o u.”
