The Bi-Annual Visible Bi+ Newsletter
March 2023
Visible Bi+ launched one year ago, in March 2022, as a volunteer project to create a new space for members of the Bi+/MSpec community to share their voices in an effort to increase authentic visibility and dispel the many misconceptions which fuel biphobia and bi-erasure.
We are immensely proud of the publication’s organic growth over this first year— across Medium, Instagram, Twitter , and Newsletter Subscriptions— and of the overwhelmingly positive feedback we’ve received, so far. The stories we share not only serve to raise awareness outside the community but also offer connection within the community, helping others to feel less alone.
Our sincere gratitude to every one of you — who read our stories, share our links, like our posts, and hit the follow buttons — for helping our publication grow, and an extra special thanks to the wonderful bi+ folx who share their stories with us.
We’re looking forward to amplifying many more Bi+/MSpec voices as we continue to grow. Learn how to share your story on Visible Bi+ by visiting the “SHARE YOUR STORY” tab on our homepage.
