June is Pride month, in honor of the 1969 Stonewall riots credited with launching LGBTQ political activism, and there are activities planned throughout the Tampa Bay area to celebrate the community.
The month is intended to celebrate hard-won equality and to raise awareness about efforts still in progress.
