In this Pride Month episode of Left of Old North, we’re joined by Aron Johnson, the Organizing Director for Equality North Carolina and a seasoned movement builder with over a decade of grassroots experience. From leading campaigns to empowering communities across the state, Aron brings deep insight into what it really takes to protect and uplift LGBTQ+ North Carolinians in an increasingly hostile political climate.
We talk about what Pride looks like beyond parades, how organizers are building power in places the legislature would rather forget, and what it means to show up for queer liberation year-round—not just in June. If you’re wondering what you can do in this moment, this episode is your roadmap.
