That's the beauty of 'Queer Eye' coming back. No matter how far you think we've come as a society, there's still work that needs to be done.

We have to continue to do the work, because we can't see people lose their lives over senseless gun violence.
Encourage your friend and family member who are queer parents of color to post their stories and share it with the world. It's time for us to be seen.
We, as communities that are marginalized, need to open up our minds and realize that we should be asking and advocating for more of everyone. Let's get more gay black men; let's get more trans women.
What does culture mean? It's not a physical thing. I love a museum, but that, for me, doesn't make you a better person.

My main thing is obviously mental health and well-being, and then my second passion would be politics; the third would be fashion.
