DSilberACLU
Review for SixDegrees.Org, Fairfax, VA, USA
The ACLU has been on the front lines of fighting for LGBTQ+ rights and defending freedom of expression, including drag performances. Nearly 500 anti-LGBTQ bills, especially anti-trans bills, have been introduced in 2023 and yet we were having trouble raising alarm bells about these bills with the general public. SixDegrees.Org, underscoring their support for inclusive communities, freedom of expression and supporting youth, especially vulnerable youth, used their platform to raise awareness about the ACLU's Drag Defense fund with audiences that may not have been aware of this crisis. SixDegrees, Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgewick highlighted this crisis over social media and raised significant funds for us to put to good work defending LGBTQ+ rights and drag artists. In addition to the amazing external-facing work that they did in support of the ACLU, they also equipped us with an in-depth report of the campaign itself. These additional insights on the campaign's performance provided helpful learnings for our organization. All-the-while, the team at SixDegrees.org was a pleasure to work with. We are deeply grateful for the collaboration and support from SixDegrees.org and would jump at the chance to be able to work with them in the future.
