🎉 Why We Celebrate in June
Pride as we know it started with the Stonewall Uprising on June 28, , when police raided a gay bar in New York City’s Greenwich Village and patrons fought back. The ensuing fights outside the bar continued for six days and fundamentally changed the discourse of LGBTQ+ activism. Historians note that Stonewall was primarily a shift in how white cisgender people viewed queer rights and that it was actually a culmination of years of activist efforts.

The street normally known for honky-tonks transformed into a vibrant show of community and acceptance.
"If you have pride for the South, you acquire pride for yourself," one attendee said.
The parade featured drag queens, marching bands, allies, grand marshals, and colorful floats parading down Broadway, handing out rainbow-colored items to the crowd.
