Overview

Mission

What it reported doing in 2025

MAS Conversaciones para MAS Ogullo: MAS Conversations for More Pride (MAS Conversaciones para MAS Orgullo): A virtual space for support and healing for members of the community, born within the framework of the COVID-19 pandemic in response to national racial tensions in May 2020. The program aimed to raise awareness about anti-blackness and provide a space of support and healing for Afro-descendant LQBTQI people, racialized people, and allies. In 2025, MAS Conversaciones expanded its programming, producing and launching the 1st and second series of the MAS Podcast para Mas Orgullo.
