Did you Know Pride Facts?
The Stonewall Riots started it all.

In June 1969, the LGBT community stood up for their rights when police raided The Stonewall Inn in New York City. The brave move paved the way for Pride Month celebrations every June.

The first Pride March was known as Christopher Street Liberation Day March.

It was led and organized by a group of activists including Brenda Howard,the Mother of Pride. The event took place in 1970.

The rainbow flag originally had eight colors.

Designed by Gilbert Baker in 1978, the flag included colors like pink for sexuality, red for life,orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature,turquoise for art, indigo for harmony, and violet for spirit.

There are a lot of LGBTQIA+ events happening every year.

Pride is just one of them! You can continue championing LGBTQIA+ rights during LGBT History Month, International Transgender Day of Visibility, National Coming Out Day, and beyond!
