Nike and OutMemphis Under Fire for Hosting Queer Youth Field Day
A fun and festive event for LGBTQ+ youth and allies in Memphis has become a target of backlash from some conservative groups and media outlets. The Queer Youth Field Day, co-hosted by OutMemphis, an LGBTQ+ nonprofit, and Nike, a global sports brand, will take place on April 22, 2023, at a secret location in Memphis, Tennessee. The event aims to celebrate the diversity and resilience of queer youth in Memphis and beyond. However, some critics have denounced the event as a way of promoting an "unhealthy" and "immoral" lifestyle among young people. They have also accused OutMemphis of indoctrinating and exploiting vulnerable youth for their political agenda. In this video, we will explore the controversy surrounding the Queer Youth Field Day and hear from the organizers, the participants, and the opponents of the event. Stay tuned for more details.
