Pride launches amid pro-Palestinian pledge controversy — and some welcome the discussion | CBC News

Last Tuesday, Capital Pride issued four "commitments," pledging to recognize the "ongoing genocide" in Gaza in opening remarks, integrate a boycott list into its sponsorship reviews, host a "queer Arab showcase" and call for a ceasefire, the immediate release of all hostages and increased humanitarian aid.

Haley Robinson, Capital Pride's grand marshal, also weighed in while attending CANFAR's brunch.

"I don't think the statement was meant for anybody to feel unwelcome," Robinson said, adding that it's necessary that Pride remains open to polarizing conversations — including ones about global conflicts.

"People have to remember that Pride isn't just about a parade and celebration," they said. "It's always been advocacy. It's always been a fight … so I think it's really important to continue to show your support for Palestinians and for other folks who are marginalized."

A Letter to My Little

By Haley Robinson, Contributing Writer (@ksuzta)

Dear Little,

I made a promise to help teach you, mentor you and guide you through your New Member process in Zeta Tau Alpha. In doing so, I hoped to find a sister I connected with and that I was happy to have continue our family line within the chapter. What I got was so much more than that.

Little, you are a smart, beautiful and amazing individual. Your heart is made of pure gold, and your smile lights up a room. You are a kind face when I need to see one, and you have never been anything but great to me. You are the definition of kindness and joy. And even though we haven’t known each other for the longest amount of time, our bond is so much more than what meets the eye.

I know joining a sorority was an intimidating experience. You had two hundred new sisters to learn the names of and countless history facts to memorize before your Initiation test, and you had to figure out your place in our chapter. The beauty of it all was you didn’t have to do it alone. That’s what I was here for, and I will continue to be here for you. You can always count on me to lend a hand, be a shoulder to cry on or just listen to your everyday frustrations. Being a Big has been one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had in ZTA so far, and that’s because I’ve had someone as great as you to call my Little. You’ve made my “job” easy.

I hope you to know how loved you truly are and how proud I am to say you are my Little.

Zeta Love and Mine, Your Big
