#Beyond#Pride: How can brands form a genuine connection with marginalised communities?
#Brands and the advertising industry all across the globe have made huge strides in recent years around awareness and support for the LGBTQ+ community.
As per the latest #ThinkWithGoogle article, less than 1% of ads show #LGBTQ+ representation even though there’s a demand from Indian consumers to increase their visibility. In fact, a lot of brands end up limiting themselves to performative campaigns during Pride month. For brands to nurture a genuine connection between themselves and marginalised communities such as the LGBTQ+ community, they have to rise above performative #allyship. The answer, therefore, should be genuinely inclusive marketing strategies with a fundamental commitment to diversity and equity.

Thanks Saloni & team for the meaningful session & this post.
The ice-breaker activity that the passionate LGBTQIA+ Sangam ERG core team conducted was a quiz that asked participants to identify some great humans who belonged to the LGBTQ+ community.
I invite my LinkedIn folks to identify one such personality with the help of the following clues:
- Decrypted Nazi's secret codes during World War II.
- Died from poisoning during harmone treatment that he accepted as an alternate to prison for being gay.
Along with the answer, what's worth pondering over is an unfortunate fact that is in our clear view, that is, despite his genius contribution to cracking the crucial war messages of the enemy, he was prosecuted for being gay.
Overtime, but not without losing lives that could have been preserved & celebrated, societies have realised to an extent, the worth of a human, inspite of their identity - sexuality, gender, class etc.
Nearer home, in India, and this was another quiz question, the fastest Indian sprinter at one point came out as lesbian.
It is heartening to feel the waves of change towards the right direction that corporates such as KPMG Global Services are creating. It is the hour when other organisations such as (my) school & (my) college unashamedly enable the ripples to trickle to, nudge their stakeholders & sensitize them to advocate for & appreciate inclusive spaces.
