After a three-year COVID-19-induced hiatus, the annual Queer Prom returned to San Francisco on Friday.
The event, organized and hosted by the San Francisco LGBT Center, provided an inclusive space for queer youth to celebrate themselves and their identities.
Vibrant colors, glittering outfits, and an electric atmosphere radiated the Rainbow Room, the center's main event space. There, attendees celebrated a night of resilience, love, and acceptance -- a kind of emotional well-being that Ziggy DeBerry, a youth programs specialist at the center, said is essential, especially for Black trans youth.
Growing up in a church and living in the predominantly white, conservative town of Santa Clarita in Southern California, DeBerry said they actively sought out and built queer and trans communities outside their religious environment.
