With today marking the first day of Pride Month, I thought it might be nice to just sit and talk about what Pride means. Pride has always been more than rainbow flags and parades. It's personal, rooted in protest and resilience. We celebrate, yes, but we also remember that Pride began as a defiant uprising, a fight for our right to exist openly and safely. The history of Pride is written in the courage and struggles of earlier generations, and their victories guide us as we face new challenges today. In June 1969, LGBTQ patrons of a small gay bar in New York City reached a breaking point. Tired of routine police harassment under discriminatory "cross-dressing" laws, they fought back during a raid at the Stonewall Inn. This riot, led by transgender and queer people who refused to be silenced, ignited the modern gay rights movement. The following year, activists commemorated Stonewall with the first Gay Liberation march in Manhattan, turning that protest into an annual tradition of visibility and activism.

as I always say… direct action gets the goods. I was in nyc for pride when Obama announced federal marriage equality in 2015, went to stonewall, heard the speakers on stage and they reminded me the fight would always be raging around the world for us and to stay vigilant Sending lots of love to people who think like us during pride month. The ones who know the root of this ‘pride’ is not a celebration, but an annual provocation for equality… and it almost always ragebaits the haters to show their colors. For as much “pride,” you’ll see LOUD hate these days. I hope you stay safe and feel the love from your chosen community this month. Tc carter ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜🩷🖤🩶🤍🤎
