October is here. The leaves are changing, the flannels are coming out, the c***r is hot—and around here, we’ve been thinking a lot about the upcoming elections, what it means to have a voice, and what it means to actually use it.
This month at Dope Dharma, our theme is VOTE FOR YOUR RIGHTS.
We’re going to talk about q***r history, community, equality, the rights generations before us fought for, and why staying informed, getting involved, and participating in our democracy matters.
We’ll be featuring five Dope Dharma Haus designs leading up to Election Day in November—five designs with five different messages, all rooted in the things we value and care about: equality, community, love, creativity, and showing up when it matters.
This is what we’re showing up for. Community, connection, chosen family, q***r joy, and the freedom to live out loud. Pride reminds us that none of our rights were won alone—and none of them are protected alone, either.
Some messages don’t need much explaining. We believe power belongs to the people—not kings, tyrants, fascists, or anyone who thinks democracy belongs only to them.
So grab something pumpkin-flavored and hang out with us this October. We’ll talk history, share some art, celebrate our community, make a little mischief—and remind each other that our voices matter.
Like. Comment. Follow. Share. And most important, VOTE.
