Exhibition curator Laura Velez claims that discrimination “is a temporary stance in societies and culture.”

“In that sense, it has been changing so we can work on it. If discrimination had not been accepted in other times and places, we should not accept it either,” she stated.

Earlier on June 23, the Museum of Life and Science revealed that it would host its first family LGBTQ+ event on June 26. Senior Director of Marketing Matt Pusateri stated, “The Museum is committed to equal access and opportunity for all in our community. We want this to be an inclusive space for everyone. But more than that, we think this event will be a fun day out for families from around the Triangle.”

Some of the activities planned include a “Science with Stormie”, with Drag Queen Stormie Daie, a pride parade, and a glimpse into diversity in insects.
