Ellen DeGeneres is perhaps the trailblazer for LGBTQ pride — at least in the entertainment industry. And as we all know, the entertainment industry is what moves the needle in the culture. (Witness the first reality TV star President of the United States for evidence.)
So when Ellen explains what pride means during Pride Week, it’s worth taking special notice. The comedian and talk show sensation — who can also famously bust a move — delivers a sober, measured, assured, quiet meditation on pride for her viewers. And what makes it so special is that Ellen hardly touches upon the themes of LGBTQ movement, but rather she defines pride as an asset to be cultivated by any human being.
In what’s pretty much a public service, Ellen defines pride ultimately as “living your life fully and authentically… pride means being enough.”
