With that being said, there is an entertainer cast this year at Augusta Pride that a majority of the community does not feel comfortable representing them. Molly Sapphire has continuously made racist and transphobic remarks (publicly and privately). She’s bullied and physically threatened multiple individuals in the community. There have also been multiple allegations of her stealing items from other entertainers and patrons. The list can go on and on.
The CSRA Drag/Queer scene is diverse and deserves to be represented by individuals who will put on a show and showcase the community with pride and poise. We don’t want a problematic and unapologetic individual being a representation for our community on our biggest platform of the year.

The momentum behind this initiative clearly indicates that our community holds a high standard for those representing us on the main stage. It is evident that many people share the same concerns regarding the integrity of our local pride celebrations.

I do not think it is appropriate for someone that makes racist and transphobic remarks, making many in the queer community feel uncomfortable, to perform at PRIDE.
Molly has been disrespectful and problematic to multiple people in and outside of the CSRA Area. Being disrespectful to Trans/Non-binary individuals. Disregarding their preferred pronouns and mocking their gender identity, I being of the individuals she has mocked. Even after professionally asking her to respect them, she continued not to. There are other many things that Molly has openly done to other people, from stealing from others to also making racist comments. The list can go on. This is one individual you don't want representing the community on the main stage of pride.
As someone who used to go to her events when she was here, I agree she is not a family-friendly performer. Drunk on the microphone, being belligerent and having other individuals carry her events (and herself since she couldn’t walk from being intoxicated), we don’t need that here.
I support this community and it’s our job as allies to hold those who do harm accountable for their actions. There’s a reason this individual no longer performs in Augusta. Maybe down the line when she matures a little more we can welcome her back.
I may not be a performer or as active as I’d like to be in the community, but I don’t think we need someone this problematic on stage. Especially someone who is known to be belligerently drunk on a microphone at shows and thinks it’s funny.

Love will conquer all❤️✨ Love Molly sapphire

Please remove racist drag queens, they are harmful to pride, which was started by a black Trans woman.
