This year's Pride in London parade will take place on Saturday, July 2.

Stonewall did not create a movement; LGBTQ+ activism had taken an organised shape in the 1920s, if not before. They have peacefully protested injustices not only facing the LGBTQ+ community, but many other marginalised groups. But on this particular night, the bar fought back.

During Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex (LGBTQI+) Pride Month, we reflect on the progress we have made as a Nation.

And we recommit to delivering protections, safety, and equality to LGBTQI+ families so that everyone can realize the full promise of America. And we must confront the disproportionate levels of poverty, homelessness, and unemployment in the LGBTQI+ community. And we remain steadfast in our commitment to helping LGBTQI+ people in America and around the world live free from violence. Members of the LGBTQI+ community — especially people of color and trans people — continue to face discrimination and cruel, persistent efforts to undermine their human rights. This month, we celebrate generations of LGBTQI+ people who have fought to make the possibilities of our Nation real for every American. During Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex (LGBTQI+) Pride Month, we reflect on the progress we have made as a Nation in the fight for justice, inclusion, and equality while reaffirming our commitment to do more to support LGBTQI+ rights at home and abroad.

This helped bring Pride celebrations and marches to the attention of people all across the U.S. As cops began arresting several bar-goers that night, those who had evacuated decided they could no longer stay silent. 9.

The reason why Pride Month is in June is that it marks the police raid that prompted the Stonewall riots – which in turn led to the establishment of LGBTQ+ rights. In the UK, the first official UK Gay Pride Rally was held in London on July 1, 1972 (chosen as the nearest Saturday to the anniversary of the Stonewall riots of 1969) – so 2022 marks the 50th year of the Pride movement on our shores.

by Becca Petunia | Jun 1, 2022 | Commentary, Feature. Stop me if you've heard this one, but I've got a question. Why are there so many songs about rainbows?

So yes, I do think it’s important that the various Henson-adjacent projects make these ideas “canonical” (or whatever passes for canon with the Muppet gang). Whether it’s introducing a new character or reimagining an old character in a new way, if these companies really want to support queer folks, this is essential. While I do still think it’s important that Disney, Sesame Workshop, and the Henson Company start making things more direct and apparent, we would be remiss in ignoring all the ways Muppet stuff makes us feel affirmed in our identities. So back to the rainbows, and back to the Muppets, because this is a Muppet fansite. They’re also a found family, who support their friends as loved ones, and embrace the differences and quirks that make each of them unique. There are human characters, like two male parents in that one GLAAD-award-winning episode of Sesame Street. But there are no Muppets who are consistently and explicitly portrayed as queer. They’re the corporation that currently owns the rights to the Flying Zucchini Brothers and the Talking Houses and Bean Bunny. Because of Disney’s negative reaction to Flordia’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill (a reaction only taken after protests by queer staffers and fans), conservatives are accusing Disney of being needlessly “woke” and “groomers” themselves.

Today and throughout the month of June, we honor the legacies of the LGBTQ+ individuals whose hard work and resilience created the world we live in today.

The first Pride march was held in New York City to mark the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising. Yet, we are one in our pursuit of knowledge.

It was that spirit of acceptance that made the Stonewall Inn such a special place in the 1960s.

This year's Pride is a time not only to celebrate, but to organize, writes Joel Mittleman.

A growing body of population-representative data reveals just how far away the promise of equality remains for today’s LGBTQ+ youth. In just the first three months of 2022, lawmakers proposed 238 bills restricting the rights of LGBTQ+ Americans. Many of these bills specifically target LGBTQ+ students’ experiences within schools. At the same time, rising waves of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation offer a stark reminder that continued progress toward equality is by no means assured. That perspective is all the more urgent in the current moment. Beginning in 2015, the Department of Education’s School Survey on Crime and Safety began asking principals whether their school had a recognized club to “promote acceptance of sexual orientation and gender identity (e.g., Gay-Straight Alliance).” In 2015, 12% of middle school principals and 50% of high school principals reported having such clubs. The court’s ruling both reflected and promoted an incredible sea change in American life.

"Pride has become is an opportunity for people to really be visible in their literally in their communities, no matter where they are, whether they're in Birmingham, Alabama, whether they're in San Francisco," she said. Despite their pivotal role in the riots and ensuing activism, trans women and other women of color were excluded from or silenced while attending some early Pride parades. "The spirit of Pride, I always say, is like a Rorschach test: It's something different to everyone," Renna said. The historic location of the Stonewall Inn can be visited today and was designated as a National Monument in 2016. "Some people want to come and and be extremely political, to use it as a platform to talk about the issues that they care about, the things that we're fighting against. This year, Pride will be celebrated – for many in-person for the first time in two years – with nationwide parades and education events at schools and community centers.

Frank’s minor in queer and sexuality studies was first offered at USF in 2018 and examines the rich history and cultural contributions of LGBTQ+ people as well as the processes that have structured sexual relations in different contexts. At USF, Frank’s decision to combine coursework in history, literature and queer studies allowed her to develop a focus for her research on queer life in the 19th century, through the lens of literature. We just didn't have the words that we have now to talk about them,” Frank said. As a digital humanities intern at USF Libraries, Frank’s interest in queer fiction eventually led her to create a digital exhibit that investigates themes and events in queer history and literature. At the event, Pride Awards are given to recognize allies for their support of the community. The committee, whose members are appointed by the president, also advocates for meaningful policy change, resource allocation and training to maintain a thriving and diverse community of LGBTQ+ students, staff, faculty, alumni and community partners. USF’s LGBTQ+ Alumni Society is an active extension of the university’s community outreach.
