In this episode, we sit down with Adam Bouska and Jeff Parshley, the trailblazing founders of the NOH8 Campaign. What began as a grassroots response to California’s Proposition 8 has grown into a global movement advocating for equality, inclusion, and self-expression. Adam and Jeff share their journey from their first MySpace (remember MySpace?!) photo shoot to traveling to 23 countries — inspiring change across small towns and big cities alike. They reveal the challenges of building a nonprofit from scratch, the power of storytelling through art, and why their mission is more urgent than ever.

What You’ll Learn:

  • The Power of Visibility: Learn why representation in media, art, and community spaces matters for driving inclusion.

  • Grassroots Advocacy Tips: Get insights into starting a movement with little to no resources and scaling it globally.

  • Why Allies Matter: Understand the role of allyship in achieving meaningful progress for the LBBTQ+ community.

  • Facing Today’s Challenges: Explore how NOH8 continues to adapt and stay relevant today.
