As the world gears up to celebrate the Pride month in June, one might wonder what it is and why do we celebrate it (since there s still a lot of stigmas and lack of awareness surrounding Pride).
What is Pride month?
Every year in June the world celebrates Pride month dedicated to the LGBTQ+ community and their right to live a dignified life. Pride is about people coming together, to show and celebrate how far gay rights have come and how much is still left to achieve.
Just as L.G.B.T.Q. visibility reached a new peak, splinter groups are re-examining the annual parade. Is Pride too corporate? Should police officers be allowed to march? Is it a revolution, or is it a party?
