The Catalyst: The Stonewall Riots (1969)
In the 1960s, homosexual acts and gender-nonconforming clothing were widely illegal in the United States, and police routinely raided gay bars to arrest patrons. After midnight on June 28, 1969, the NYPD raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay bar in Greenwich Village. [1, 2]
Unlike previous raids, the bar’s patrons and neighborhood residents fought back. Tensions escalated into a six-day uprising that included clashes with law enforcement and protests against the systemic abuse of queer people. Leaders in the uprising included marginalized figures like trans women of color Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
 
The First Marches (1970)
On the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall uprising, on June 28, 1970, activists organized the Christopher Street Liberation Day March. This event is recognized as the first official gay pride parade. Several hundred people marched through Greenwich Village in broad daylight, marking a turning point from hiding identities to visibly, proudly demanding civil rights. Similar marches were held that same year in Los Angeles, Chicago, and San Francisco. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
 
The Evolution of the Movement
In the years following the initial marches:
  • The Term "Pride": The name "pride" was coined by activist Craig Schoonmaker in 1970 to replace shame and empower the community. [1, 2]
  • The Rainbow Flag: The iconic rainbow flag was created by artist Gilbert Baker and debuted at San Francisco's Gay Freedom Day Parade in 1978. [1, 2]
  • Expansion: Over the decades, localized, one-day events evolved into a global, month-long series of celebrations, memorials, and political activism. [1]
  • Recognition: President Bill Clinton officially declared June as Gay and Lesbian Pride Month in 1999. [1, 2]

 

(Information was found and researched through American University, The LGBTQ Task Force,  NASCSP, and more)

 

5% of all pride purchases in June will be donated to LGBTQIA+ and Human Rights Chartities.
