Chasten Buttigieg on being an ally: "Always ask questions"

Chasten Buttigieg has advice for those who aren't sure how to be an ally to the LGBTQ community: Show up, put in the work and ask questions. 

"Allyship isn't just slapping a rainbow sticker on your backpack or your water bottle, kind of signaling to folks, 'Hey I might be part of the community or I'm an ally.' Part of your job as an ally is also to do the work," Buttigieg, the husband of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, said Tuesday in an interview with CBSN.  During the 2020 campaign, Buttigieg, a teacher, opened up about the difficulties he faced coming out as gay, saying he left home after telling his parents and brothers because he didn't feel accepted. After a few months of living out of his car and couch surfing, his mom called him and asked him to come home, he told the Washington Post in 2019.
