International LGBT Pride
International LGBT Pride Day is a commemorative and awareness day that celebrates sexual and gender diversity, as well as promoting the equality and rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and other non-conforming gender identities (LGBT+). This date is celebrated on June 28th , marking the anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising, a crucial event in the history of the LGBT+ movement that took place in 1969 at the Stonewall Inn bar in New York. During this revolt, LGBT+ bar patrons resisted the violent police raid and began a series of demonstrations that lasted several days. This event was a turning point in the fight for LGBT+ rights, inspiring activism movements around the world. The day is marked by events such as parades, marches and educational activities, aimed at combating prejudice and discrimination.
