Happy pride month Pride Month is a month long celebration of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Community in recognition of the impact LGBTQ+ folks have had on the world. It is celebrated each year in the month of June to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in Manhattan, which were a tipping point in the movement for LGBTQ liberation in the United States. Today, celebrations are held around the world and include pride parades, picnics, parties, and more.
