New Delhi, Jan 21 : In 1965, four years before the Stonewall Riots in New York ignited the worldwide modern gay rights movement, a group of protesters began an annual July 4th pride march in front of Independence Hall in Philadelphia.
These annual reminders were demonstrations designed to remind the American people that many American citizens were denied the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness promised in the Declaration of Independence. What started at Independence Hall evolved into a civil rights movement and since then, Philadelphia has been a seat of progress and activism for the LGBTQ community.
