UPSIZE PH | Cut! Print. Podcast Network Holds 1st Pride Event

Cut! Print. Podcast Network, a queer and women-led network, is holding their first-ever Pride event via Facebook live.

Given the prevalence of violence against the LGBTQIA+ community, it becomes more important to create safe spaces for the expression of their stories. “PRISM: Reign of the CPPN Pride Spaces and Stories” aims to provide a platform that empowers the community to freely exist and to thrive.
