The Westboro Baptist Church, known for its extreme and inflammatory hate speech, is bringing its divisive message to Fresno and Reedley. The WBC has gained notoriety for targeting LGBTQ+ individuals, military personnel, and other marginalized groups with protests filled with offensive and hurtful rhetoric. Their actions have been widely condemned as hateful, and they have been classified as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
In response to their planned visit, a coalition of local LGBTQ+ organizations and allies are coming together to stand against their message of intolerance. The coalition’s counter-protest aims to promote unity, love, and acceptance for all. Through peaceful demonstration, the LGBTQ+ community and supporters will stand in solidarity, sending a clear message: hate has no place here.
Join us in supporting equality, respect, and inclusivity for all individuals, regardless of their gender identity, sexual orientation, or background. Together, we can drown out hate with a message of love and acceptance.
