Speaking to scores of world heads of state at a virtual event titled ‘Summit for Democracy’, Joe Biden decreed that leaders need to protect the LGBTQ+ community in order to create a ‘fair and stronger’ society.
“When we advance equality and racial justice and invest in young people, protect the LGBTQ+ individuals, our societies are not only fair but they’re stronger and more successful,” Biden said.
He continued, “Democracy demands full and equal participation of all — all of our citizens. That’s how we unleash the human potential and put ourselves in the strongest possible position to take on the shared challenges — and I emphasize “shared” challenges.”
Watch:
The comments drew criticism, coming just days after the horrific school shooting in Nashville by a trans-identifying individual, who went on a rampage amid a campaign to call for ‘vengeance’ among the trans community, with others posing with firearms and espousing violent rhetoric.
