Jake Resnicow (producer):
“We don’t just want the option of online spaces to connect with one another. In many cases, it’s all we have! By celebrating Pride in the metaverse, discrimination becomes disempowered. MetaPride Land will be a safe and anonymous place for people to find community and belonging, to celebrate Pride from the safety of their homes, and choose their level of immersion through sociable experiences.”
