Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) Pride Month is currently celebrated each year in the month of June to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan. The Stonewall Uprising was a catalyst for the modern day worldwide gay rights movement. In the United States the last Sunday in June was initially celebrated as "Gay Pride Day," but the "day" soon grew to encompass a month-long series of events. Today, LGBTQ Pride celebrations include pride parades, picnics, parties, workshops, festivals and memorials for those in our community who have been lost to hate crimes or HIV/AIDS. The purpose of the commemorative month is to recognize the impact that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals have had on history locally, nationally, and internationally. The LGBTQ Employee Alliance (LGBTQ-EA) would like to invite its members and allies to participate in this year’s Pride events, which include: June 11: Pride Night with the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field when they take on the Los Angeles Angels. June 14 – July 2: LGBTQ Pride Flags display in the City Hall Atrium. The display will feature the Rainbow Pride Flag, generally considered the most recognizable symbol of Pride. However, you’ll learn that there are more than 20 LGBTQ Pride Flags that represent different identities within the broader queer community.
