Given incidents of anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation, both in Nashville and nationally, we are committed to providing a platform for supporting the local Nashville community . We also acknowledge that Nashville occupies the ancestral hunting and traditional Lands of the Cherokee, Shawnee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Creek peoples. We recognize, support, and advocate for the Indigenous individuals and communities.

As an organization, we are excited to introduce an opportunity for all participants to show their support. By purchasing our Love Over shirt, you contribute to a meaningful cause. The proceeds generated from the sales will be thoughtfully divided between two vital organizations: PFLAG Nashville, a group dedicated to LGBTQIA+ support, and the Native American Indian Association of Tennessee, which works tirelessly to empower Indigenous individuals and communities.

Join us in spreading love, promoting inclusivity, and making a positive impact on both the LGBTQIA+ community and Indigenous populations. Your purchase of the Love Over shirt not only represents a stylish addition to your wardrobe but also symbolizes your commitment to equality and justice for all. We encourage all members who purchase this shirt, to wear it on Friday afternoon, where we will be out in the local community, on organized tours or on your own.
