I feel as though in creating the community for ourselves, we can strive for complete inclusivity, meaning that every intersectional or marginalized body and voice feels welcomed, loved, and supported.Ģ. Boston in its entirety may not have enough exclusive spaces for the queer community however, I can say that these spaces do welcome us. I honestly believe that we sometimes have to create these spaces ourselves. The openness, transparency, the reinforcement of diversity, safe spaces, and support are what make Boston great for the queer community. There are organizations for LGBTQ+ as well as cafes, bars, and nightlife that are dedicated to inclusivity for queer folx. Some people may overlook Dorchester, but this part of Boston is welcoming to the queer community. However, there are many gay bars, cafes, and restaurants in this area as well. I’d say that affordable housing in this area is harder to find nowadays so the queer community is typically elder residents. Also Centre Street is a rather popular area in JP with a lot of queer-friendly restaurants and shops. There are also organizations in JP that advocate for, empower, and enhance the wellbeing of queer/trans people of color. There are people of many diverse backgrounds who reside here.
