Karen McKay from the Centre Equitable Library Access will tell you how the LAMBDA Awards celebrate writers from the LGBTQ2+ Community. This is from the June 3, 2022 episode.

Born & raised in New York, Dan Kiernan is an emerging pop-soul singer & songwriter.  After performing in over 30 countries in multiple concerts, cabarets and regional theatres on both land and sea, Dan broke into the NYC music scene in 2018.  Dan's shows & music are both raw and electric.  His debut live album, "Dan Kiernan: LIVE + UNPLUGGED", recorded at the iconic Bitter End has over 60,000 streams and charted in the LGBTQ music charts in the UK.  His recent singles “Cutting Ties”, “Run With Scissors”, & “The Other Side” have amassed over 100,000 streams.  Dan has headlined in NYC at Sony Hall, The Bowery Electric, The Groove, Arlene's Grocery, DROM, The Bitter End, 2021 Brooklyn Pride, and the 2021 Music for Climate Justice Festival in Stockholm, Sweden.  His music combines the nostalgia of 90s/2000s pop and classic rock.  @DanKiernanMusic

Most of us would look at a mouse in our house as an undesirable thing.  We may think of him as an unwelcome intruder.  Besides just being a little creepy, he could cause damage, make a mess, and worst of all, help make many more mice that could intrude into your house.  It's hard to imagine that many of us would intentionally allow the mouse in our house with an open invite.  Something about that just seems to go against common sense.  This show begins by discussing the most famous of mice, Mickey Mouse.  In recent days, the creators and owners of Mickey have come under fire for using the platform of Mickey and his gang to infiltrate your house with a very selective message.  In particular, this is the message of promoting and exposing young children to the ideas and concepts of the LGBTQ community.  They openly have stated that they want to do this by creating characters in their productions that reflect or live in such a way.  The hope, as it seems, is to desensitize the next generation to the lifestyle of the LGBTQ community. Not only to promote acceptance for the current population of LGBTQ, but also to encourage those not yet clearly identified or even understanding the concept of the lifestyle.  Using the "mouse in the house" metaphor, many parents are seeing Disney's latest promotion as just that, an intrusion by an undesired mouse.  Something that could cause damage or harm to their family.  They question the healthiness of the LGBTA lifestyle, especially for their own kids.  During the show, Linda and Merrill state that they are not doing the show to create an argument on what is right or wrong.  They are promoting that all parents have a responsibility to protect and raise their children.  In order to do this, parents must intentionally identify what they deem harmful or dangerous.  The question is, how do you determine whether something or someone is harmful or dangerous.  This is the crux of the discussion.  Making an assumption, either way is irresponsible and potentially very harmful. Parents must determine how they are going to approach these issues what they will allow their children to be exposed to and then how to protect them from unwanted intruders.  As for Christian parents, this is actually much easier than we often think it is.  We use God's word to help us determine what is harmful or healthy.  His word describes the nature by which God operates both in the natural world and the spiritual world.  The key here is to refer to God for making the decision as to whether the mouse is harmful or not.  Social pressures or media persuasion is not our authority. A key takeaway is the understanding that God hates sin but loves sinners.  All of us are sinners, no one is righteous.  We must not take personally the protection of our sin, but rather, we must desire to take personally the protection of our relationship with the nature of God. News on Disney - https://youtu.be/Mi6yBbCUp_wRock Solid Families - https://www.rocksolidfamilies.org/ Support the show (https://www.paypal.com/donate/?token=0Gu_CU51XtrK1z7cJxUO4BlOgzML2iPZFzYxn5WvnE-59-sq_NHQrti0JG6z2k84mOVEWm&country.x=US&locale.x=US)

Please note, I receive no compensation from Morningstar or anyone else covered in these podcasts. Also, if any terms are unfamiliar to you, simply Google them. ------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Best Infrastructure Stocks Now amid the continuing US talks on infrastructure Neha Chamaria has penned an article titled 5 Potential Winners from Biden's Infrastructure Plan. It appeared on fool.com. I name her picks and follow them with some of her remarks. “1) Vulcan Materials (NYSE: VMC) Vulcan is the nation's largest producer of aggregates, operates across 20 states, and has equal exposure to private (residential and nonresidential) construction and public infrastructure markets, positioning it well to benefit from nearly all kinds of construction activity. Vulcan is already experiencing strong demand… has a strong balance sheet (and) has steadily increased its dividend for years. 2) Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT) … might be the leading construction equipment manufacturer, but it also has significant exposure to volatile sectors like mining and oil and natural gas. That's why a pure-play equipment stock like United Rentals (NYSE: URI) could be a better potential winner from Biden's infrastructure plan. United Rentals is the world's largest heavy-equipment rental company… Its revenue grew at a compound annual rate of 14% over the past decade. 3) AECOM (NYSE: ACM) Building anything requires planning, designing, and engineering, which is why an infrastructure consulting company like AECOM should benefit from an uptick in infrastructure spending in the U.S…. government is already its biggest client… 4) Nucor (NYSE: NUE) … is the largest and most diversified manufacturer of steel and steel products in the U.S… (and) is North America's largest scrap recycler… (Its) mini steel mills use electric-arc furnaces -- a more flexible, cost-effective method than traditional blast furnaces. (Also, Nucor) has a solid balance sheet… increasing its dividend payouts for 48 straight years. 5) ChargePoint Technologies (NYSE: CHPT) The (US) president's infrastructure plan includes a… network of 500,000 EV chargers across the nation by 2030. Currently, there are only around 42,500 charging station locations in the U.S… ChargePoint operates one of the world's largest EV charging networks and has a nearly 70% share of the domestic Level 2 charging network market… ChargePoint… sells hardware to station operators, which then subscribe to its software to manage the stations.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Best Green Bond Funds More and more ethical and sustainable investors are turning their attention to green bonds and the benefits they offer. Here are two articles on that theme. The first is titled How Eco-Conscious Is Your Portfolio? 2 Green Bond ETFs To Consider by Tezcan Gecgil at investor.com. Here are some quotes from the article. “1) iShares Global Green Bond ETF (NASDAQ: BGRN) The iShares Global Green Bond ETF provides access to global investment-grade green bonds that have been issued to fund environmental projects. Furthermore… the fund is U.S.-dollar hedged. Since its inception in November 2018, net assets have grown to $212 million. (The iShares Global Green Bond ETF)… tracks the returns of the Bloomberg Barclays MSCI Global Green Bond Select (USD Hedged) Index. (It has) bonds issued by governments of France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Italy as well as the European Investment Bank and KfW Group lead the names in the roster. 2) VanEck Vectors Green Bond ETF (NYSE: GRNB) Another green bond ETF that could be of interest to readers is the VanEck Vectors Green Bond which provides exposure to U.S.-dollar-denominated green bonds for financing environmentally-friendly projects. In addition to bonds issued in the U.S. and various European countries, VanEck Vectors Green Bond ETF also holds bonds from China, South Korea, Brazil, India, Chile, Indonesia and others.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 3. Best Green Bond Funds The second article on green bonds is titled $1.2tn US giant launches core impact bond fund into Ucits market. It's by Chris Sloley and was on the citywireselector.com site. The fund is for investors in Denmark, Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, UK, and Italy. Here are some quotes… “Global investment giant Nuveen has launched its Global Core Impact Bond fund for Ucits investors to capitalise on opportunities created by ‘ESG leaders'. The multi-currency bond fund will invest across all global fixed income markets… Focusing on perceived ‘ESG leaders', the bond fund will find companies setting an example in their respective industry or sector, with respect to ESG risks and behaviours… The fund may allocate up to 40% in emerging markets and 15% in high yield, at the managers' discretion. It will launch with $25m (€20.5m) of seed capital.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Best LGBTQ Friendly Stocks Since this is Pride Month and numerous LGBTQI+ investors are ethically and sustainably oriented, here's an article for members of that community. It's titled Ethical Investing for Pride Month: 10 Gay-Friendly Stocks To Buy. It's by John Csiszar and was on the gobankingrates.com site. Here are some quotes from his article. “1) Alphabet Inc. (GOOG) Google, now trading under parent company Alphabet, has long been a strong supporter of the LGBTQ community. The company has a specific support group for the LGBTQ community, known as ‘Gayglers'. 2) International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) IBM was one of the first companies to include sexual orientation in its nondiscrimination policy, back in 1984. The company established its Global LGBT Council, designed to make the workplace safe for everyone, in 1995. 3) Visa Inc. (V) Visa has appeared on the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index for five years running, marking it as one of the best places to work for LGBTQ employees. Visa supports the United Nations Standards for LGBTI, which outlines five standards of conduct that the business community can use to combat discrimination against lesbian, bi, gay, trans and intersex people. 4) The Charles Schwab Corporation (SCHW) Schwab has received a 100% rating on the Human Rights Campaign's Corporate Equality Index for LGBTQ+ inclusion for over 15 years… Internally, Schwab has created a diversity and inclusion group known as PRIDE, dedicated specifically to the LGBTQ+ network at Schwab. 5) The Coca-Cola Company (KO) The company has scored 100% on the HRC's Corporate Equality Index every year since 2006. Coca-Cola has also designed a separate Business Resource Group specifically to address LGBTA issues. Other LGBTQ-focused resources that Coca-Cola supports include the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund and The Trevor Project. 6) PayPal Holdings, Inc. (PYPL) PayPal is another company scoring a perfect 100% on the Human Rights Campaign's Equality Index, and it strongly promotes LGBTQ rights. The company has a benefits flyer that outlines all its health benefits for transgender employees, from hormone replacement therapies and voice modification surgery to therapy sessions and more. 7) Microsoft Corporation (MSFT) Microsoft and its employees have donated over $2 million to organizations supporting the LGBTQI+ community just over the past year… Microsoft has received a perfect 100% score on the HRC's Equality Index for 13 years running. 8) Target Corporation (TGT) As with many of the other companies making the HRC Equality Index, Target has signed the Equality Act. Target has developed its own PRIDE Manifesto, designed to emphasize the company's dedication to equality. Target also produces clothing and other products indicating its backing of the LGBTQ community. 9) Starbucks Corporation (SBUX) In addition to receiving a perfect 100% score on the HRC's Equality Index for 11 straight years, the company has recently donated $50,000 to the Lavender Rights Project. 10) Apple Inc. (AAPL) Apple isn't just the largest company in America, it's also one of the most consistent supporters of the LGBTQ community. Apple has been rated a best place to work for the LGBTQ community for 15 years straight.” End quotes. Also, note this article on a new Pride fund, titled, Pride Month meets Wall Street as new LGBTQ ETF hits the market by Ernestine Siu. Quote “ProcureAM, in partnership with LGBTQ Loyalty Holdings, launched the new LGBTQ100 ESG ETF.” End quote. ------------------------------------------------------------- Honorable Mentions 1. Title: My Top Renewable Energy Stock to Buy in June. “Bloom Energy (NYSE: BE) is the stock I think will be one of the hydrogen winners” says Travis Hoium, the article's author. 2. Title: Fidelity to Launch 5 New ESG Funds by Bernice Napach. Quoting the article, “All five new funds are actively managed and the two ETFs are Fidelity's first ETFs focused on ESG factors.” End quote. ------------------------------------------------------------- Ending Comment Well, these are my top news stories with their stock and fund tips -- for this podcast: “Best Infrastructure and LGBTQ Friendly Stocks, Plus…” To get all the links, stock symbols, or to read the transcript of this podcast -- and more -- go to investingforthesoul.com/podcasts and scroll down to this episode.

Frank Chiang joins today to talk about being a gay, cis, Asian man in various white and Asian queer spaces. We talk about activism and far left social media activism. Has seeing racial activism on social media bummed you out? Why and what can you do about it? We also shit on sheltered white people and their bubbles and talk about desirability and beauty as privilege but also power. Also, what's up with colorblind white people and how is that still a thing?LGBTQ Asian American groups mentioned: GAPIMNY: http://gapimny.org/Q-Wave: http://www.q-wave.org/NQAPIA: https://www.nqapia.org/Contact Nancy at:interpellasian@gmail.comWebsitePOC Podcast has an Instagram now!And a Twitter!Frank ChiangInstagramWelcome to Progressive Opinions of Color (POC), a podcast that seeks to create space for more people of color in politics and economics. With the 2020 presidential election coming up and the state of the economy during COVID-19, it is more important than ever to think about who we include in the conversations about politics and economics. I am Nancy Wu, your host. I’m also an Asian American woman, an economist, and a huge politics and policy nerd. I triple majored in Economics, Government (Political Science) and Gender Studies at Dartmouth and have a Master’s in Development Economics from Oxford. I work as an Economist full time and have previously worked in economic policy at the White House (under Obama, of course) and progressive think tanks. The goal of this podcast is to engage the Asian American community and other POC and BIPOC voices in an industry that is so heavily represented by old white men. The POC Podcast will host conversations on the 2020 Presidential Election, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, the coronavirus pandemic, the state of the economy, and other pressing topics in politics, economics, and culture, all through perspectives inclusive of the lived experiences of people of color. Whether you're new to politics or already a huge politics nerd, I hope this podcast inspires community and conversation among us. Join me in reimagining politics and economics with underrepresented voices. The economy is complicated enough. Learn about it through stories from real people.

“We have a family room, where people are often found napping or watching endless YouTube videos, but mostly just hanging out and connecting with one another and finding community because chosen community is so important to us in the LGBTQA+ community. We do a lot of trainings and workshops.   “At the end of the day, we affirm that LGBTQA+ people on our campus, and in particular, our students, are perfect and whole and complete exactly as they are. And we celebrate, affirm and empower them.”  “We are a resource center, so we're kind of that middle person,” assistant director Oprah Jrenal adds. “Jesse has done a great job of making connections across campus. When a student comes in and they're like, ‘This thing happened,' Jesse is able to go through the Rolodex of people they know and say, ‘Oh, I can connect you to this human in that college who can support you with making the choice on that or to figure out how to fix that.'  “That's why it's so important that we do all the workshops and trainings and keep our website up to date with a glossary of terminology so that folks who are just sitting in their offices can go, ‘Gee, I heard this word today. What does that even mean?' Our website has so many resources on it, so if folks really don't want to talk to a human, they can always go to our website and explore more about our community.”  Beal says “the easiest way for faculty and staff to engage with our center is to either attend one of our trainings or workshops or to bring us in for consultation. For students, I think the easiest way to engage is to start with social media like Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and our website. Or come to one of our many events and programs.”  Beal and Jrenal explain the importance of pronouns.  “Pronouns are words that we use in place of your name,” Beal says. “Most people have pronouns that they expect people to use for them when they're not in the room, right? The most common ones are the he series, he, him, his, or the she series, she, her, hers. I think it's important for folks to remember that they, them, theirs pronouns have been used as a singular since I think 1375.   “This is not a new thing, but it feels like a new thing to a lot of people because they haven't heard about folks using they as a singular for people who have a non-binary or a transgender identity. I use they/them pronouns. Those are the pronouns I expect for people to use for me when I'm not in their space or when they're talking about me when I'm even in front of them. I've been using those pronouns for a really long time. People can be very helpful in creating an inclusive space for transgender and non-binary folks by simply using the pronouns that we ask you to use for us. All it takes is a little practice.”  “A lot of the pushback will be, ‘How do I even learn what a person's pronouns are?' Well, you ask, right? You don't assume that you know someone's pronouns because when you assume that you know someone's pronouns, you assume that you know their gender. We don't know that by looking at someone. What you're doing is you're taking cues from their body, from the length of their hair, or sometimes from a name on a list. You're assuming so much from so little when all you have to do is really ask someone who they are and get to know them.  “When you meet that person, actually meet them and leave behind whatever biased stereotype stuff that you might have to try to put someone in a box really quickly. As humans, we want to know as much as we can with as little time spent as we can, right? I want to put you in a box so that I can move on, but that hasn't served people for a long time. It hasn't served all of us for a very long time and it's very damaging, very harmful.  “If folks want to create more inclusive environments, one thing is to take your time and ask people their pronouns and provide a space for them to share them.”   “I want to add one tiny thing to that for folks who are not transgender or non-binary, or who don't use a gender-neutral pronoun,” Beal adds. “The easiest thing you can do to normalize and make it okay for people to share their pronouns is to just share yours. That may happen in your email signature, or it could be, Russ, you could so easily say, ‘Hi. My name is Russ, and these are the pronouns I use.' That gives me, as a non-binary person in the world, a little bit more space to say, ‘Hey, I'm Jesse. I use they/them pronouns. Thanks so much.'  “The more current acronym is either LGBTQA+ or LGBTQIA+. That's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and asexual. Plus means on and on and on in the rest of the acronym, because the problem with the acronym is we're going to leave somebody out unless we have it go for a very, very, very long time.  “I jokingly call it the ever-expanding acronym.  I get to make that joke; I don't know that people who don't belong to the LGBTQA+ community get to. The more inclusive way to have the acronyms these days is to include the plus sign to indicate that there are more identities that are not included in the first set because we are ever growing and we are huge and we are not just one community.  Beal and Jrenal talk about June being Pride Month.   “LGBTQA+ communities are diverse and LGBTQA+ people exist in every employee group, in every racial identity, in every religious group, in every student group. We're everywhere. I don't say that to sound scary, but we are; we're everywhere. We are so representative of the diversity that makes MSU so beautiful and there are so many ways to engage with us.”  “One of the things we hear a lot is that all of these pronouns have come out of nowhere. It's just that folks weren't paying attention. Folks were under the threat of death and safety and losing jobs and all these different things. Folks were oppressed, or are oppressed, so you're not going to have someone tell you who they are when they can't trust you that they're going to have their job the next day. It's important to understand that we've always been here and we're everywhere, just like Jesse said. I think that's one of the things that I want folks to understand, is this stuff isn't new.”  “Yes, and the language is changing so rapidly. Part of why the language is changing so rapidly is because we haven't been able to talk about ourselves freely and in public for very long at all. Until recently, we haven't been able to be fully who we are in the world. LGBTQA+ people have existed since humans existed, we just have different language for that all throughout history. This is not a new thing; it just looks a little different than it used to.”  How can we all show and practice solidarity?  “The number one thing I'm seeing right now, given our current political moment, is the need for folks to diversify their media consumption,” Beal adds. “If you're not hearing the stories of LGBTA+ people, that has to do with what newspaper you read or what movies you watch. Something that everyone can do, that's actually super easy and also fun, is to actually start reading books about queer and trans people, watching films, and learning more about who we are. Because we are you. We are a part of what it is to be human and we exist and we probably exist in everyone's families and communities. Learning a little bit about who we are and our story and our struggle is incredibly vital. I have some film suggestions if anyone's interested.  “A very simple things folks can do on campus is to please put your pronouns in your email signature. That is such an easy way to just do a simple thing that will make a difference and teach somebody something about what it means to be LGBTQA+ in the world. Change your forms, go to a training, don't assume people's gender or pronouns when you're talking to them. Actually get to know them.”  “Take your time,” encourages Jrenal. “You don't have to know everything. Jesse and I don't know everything. I think a lot of folks completely get turned off by the concept of inclusion because they feel like they need to know every single thing before they act at all, and that's just not true. We just need you to show up and to try and when you mess up to apologize and then do better the next time and then do better the next time after that. It's about progress, not perfection, always. We need folks to start and to keep going.”  MSU Today airs Sunday mornings at 9:00 on 105.1 FM, AM 870, and your smart speaker.
