Pride Month is Around the Corner and Everyone Has Feelings About it

June is right around the corner. That means Pride Month is too.

Now that Pride month is around the corner, I wonder if she is experiencing the same rush of power that Mariah Carey feels on November 1st pic.twitter.com/dWWB5saNYz

Pride Month pays respect to the Stonewall Riots and honors the impact that queer and trans folks have had on society. While we are still able to celebrate all month, we also recognize that Pride Month has taken on various meanings to different folks across the world. 

For some, it’s about celebrating being out, loud, and proud. For others, it’s about acknowledging the history that queer and trans folks have created and cherishing the legacy of those no longer with us. For businesses, it’s a fine time to update those logo colors to rainbow.

And while we have to find joy where we can, Pride Month is also a reminder that we still have plenty to fight against for future generations

this coming pride month, remember stories like these. this is what we are up against in 2022. our culture is still being marginalised and treated inferior. our existence isn’t a mistake. we are all beautiful. allies, we need you now more than ever. https://t.co/VP3R7lINyX
