Queer Muslim Leader Hasan Namir Appears In Airbnb's New Pride Month Video

"When I came out, my biggest fear came true—my family disowned me."

Airbnb has released an ad for LGBT Pride Month, featuring a trans hockey player, a gay Muslim and a queer woman from the South. Each of them sharing their personal story about fearing rejection from their community by coming out.

The video ends with the the words: "We believe that the pride of one is created by the support of many. Let's create a world where we can all belong."

One of the stars of the video, Hasan Namir, founded the Unity Mosque in Toronto, an inclusive house of worship.

"By sharing my voice, I hope I can encourage others to share theirs,” Namir said of appearing in the clip.

Last year, in an equally emotional Pride ad, Airbnb filmed gay couples describing the difficulties of traveling together in unfriendly areas.
