What is Pride Month?
Pride Month is an annual celebration that takes place in June to honor the Stonewall riots, which occurred in June 1969. The Stonewall riots were a series of demonstrations by members of the LGBTQ+ community in response to a police raid in Greenwich Village, New York City. These riots marked a turning point in the LGBTQ+ rights movement, and Pride Month serves as a reminder of the struggles and achievements of the community.
