Sussex-based LGBTQ+ youth charity, **Allsorts Youth Project**, has launched a brand-new resource, ***Celebrating Black LGBT+ People***, which is [part of a new series of resources](https://www.allsortsyouth.org.uk/resources/allsorts-visibility?ref=scenemag.co.uk), ***Allsorts of Visibility: Celebrating LGBT+ People of Colour*** *.*

One of the challenges many people may face when growing up as LGBTQ+ is that they are not presented with many or any positive LGBTQ+ role models in their immediate proximity, or in mainstream culture. Those with intersecting or mixed marginalised identities are often most misrepresented or non-existent in mainstream culture and this is particularly true for LGBTQ+ people of colour.

When outlining the project, creator and lead curator of *Allsorts of Visibility*, **Marquita**, said: *“To me, it’s about representation, visibility, positivity, empowerment and normalising our presence. Plus, showing diversity within PoC communities, because we are not a monolith.”*

Compiled by Allsorts young people, volunteers and staff, *Celebrating Black LGBT+ People* is the first edition of *Allsorts of Visibility,* now available on [Allsorts Youth Project’s website](https://www.allsortsyouth.org.uk/resources/toolkits-booklets-guides?ref=scenemag.co.uk). It will be followed by *Celebrating South Asian LGBT+ People*.
