Celebrating the LGBTQI+ community
This June marks the 51st celebration of Pride Month – a time when millions of people come together in support of the LGBTQI+ community. Today is the Global Pride Day that commemorates the Stonewall riots, which began in the early hours of June 28, 1969, after police raided a gay club called the Stonewall Inn in New York City. The patrons fought back, paving the path for the modern gay rights movement.
