Pride celebrations

Pride celebrations are events that honor and support the LGBTQ+ community, celebrating diversity, acceptance, and equal rights. Originating from the 1969 Stonewall Riots, these festivities include parades, festivals, and educational activities that promote visibility and awareness. They serve as a reminder of the ongoing fight for LGBTQ+ rights and provide a space for individuals to express their authentic selves freely. Pride events foster community solidarity, highlight achievements, and advocate for equality, helping to create a more inclusive society where everyone’s identity is respected.
