I wanted to demonstrate in an infographic poster the state of gay rights in the United States. The rights of LGBTQ+ individuals across the country are in jeopardy at the hands of legislation that could severely limit freedoms and enable persecution endangering many youths and families. I wanted to bring not only awareness to how much progress we as a nation have to make in the fight for equality, but how much prejudice and limitations gay and trans individuals already face as it is.
