🌈 Langa LGBTQIA+ Pride Statement on International Non-Binary Day – 14 July 2025 🌈
Today, on International Non-Binary Day, Langa LGBTQIA+ Pride joins the global community in celebrating and uplifting the lives, identities, and experiences of all non-binary people.
Non-binary people are not new they are part of our history, our families, our communities. Yet, in many places, including our townships, non-binary individuals continue to be marginalized, misunderstood, or erased. Today, we say: You are seen. You are valid. You belong.
As a movement rooted in justice, inclusion, and dignity, we call on all community members, leaders, educators, and institutions to:
Recognize the rich diversity of gender identities beyond the binary of male and female;
Affirm and respect non-binary people by using inclusive language and pronouns;
Challenge homophobia, transphobia, and all forms of discrimination, especially in our townships where violence and stigma remain deeply rooted.
Let us use this day not only to celebrate, but also to educate, transform, and heal. Let’s encourage our townships to be inclusive, to open their hearts and minds, and to embrace all members of the LGBTQIA+ community with love and humanity.
We at Langa LGBTQIA+ Pride remain committed to creating safe, supportive spaces where everyone including our non-binary siblings can thrive.
To all non-binary people: You are powerful. You are beautiful. You are not alone.
