Pride Marches Across America: A Colorful Celebration of LGBTQ+ Rights
TL;DR
Thousands of LGBTQ+ Pride revelers marched in parades across the US, including New York, San Francisco, and Chicago, to commemorate the 1969 Stonewall uprising and advocate for transgender rights. Many expressed concern over the growing conservative countermovement and new laws banning gender-affirming care for transgender children. Pride events in many cities emphasized activism and unity against anti-LGBTQ+ legislation. Despite an increase in anti-LGBTQ+ incidents coinciding with Pride events, the increased visibility of transgender people at marches and celebrations is heartening for some.
