THHS Pride Club Welcomes Pride Month
“The Pride Club has helped with my anxiety. It helps to be around people who are accepting [of me],” stated a student at Two Harbors High School. The THHS Pride Club is a safe space for LGBTQ+ kids and straight allies to socialize. Every Monday, Liz Smith and Celina Thies’ classroom is full of smiling faces chatting, working on homework, or sitting on beanbags playing video games. Smith mentioned how she didn’t feel right giving the club an agenda if the kids just wanted to socialize and be themselves in a space where “people aren’t judging them”. Students described Pride Club as an opportunity to see their friends and “just hang out”. “It’s a younger crowd,” Smith said, observing how she and Thies encountered many new faces in their second year as Pride Club advisors. “As [the kids] identify who they are and who they want to be, they don’t need the pride club as much.” When one student was asked to explain how they felt about their identity inside the club versus outside the club, they said: “When you’re in the hallway you feel on edge, but in a classroom [my identity] feels more normal.”
