Celebrating LGBTQ+ History During Pride Month
Recently I saw a Tik Tok from a young Gen Z’er that stated that they didn’t understand why Pride Month “is a thing.”
This. This is why.
Learning collective history and informing ourselves of the past provides a foundation for future activism and support. It also just creates space for gratitude and recognition for the increased visibility and acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community. In comparison to 50+ years ago, we have come a long way, but there’s still so much work to be done.
