Listen Later

The Two Gay Geeks have a chat about Pride Month and a few of the items we have watched for Pride. We also celebrate the actual day of the Stonewall Rebellion with some thoughts on where we have been and how far we have come in the quest for LGBTQ+ Equality. We hope you will join us in being out and proud and will celebrate with us in knowing equality for ALL is a journey, not a destination. Have a listen and we hope you enjoy this as much as we did.

About Pride Celebrations



☀☀☀


Gay pride or LGBT pride is the promotion of the self-affirmation, dignity, equality, and increased visibility of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people as a social group. Pride, as opposed to shame and social stigma, is the predominant outlook that bolsters most LGBT rights movements. Pride has lent its name to LGBT-themed organizations, institutes, foundations, book titles, periodicals, a cable TV station, and the Pride Library.

Ranging from solemn to carnivalesque, pride events are typically held during LGBT Pride Month or some other period that commemorates a turning point in a country's LGBT history, for example, Moscow Pride in May for the anniversary of Russia's 1993 decriminalization of homosexuality. Some pride events include LGBT pride parades and marches, rallies, commemorations, community days, dance parties, and festivals.

Common symbols of pride are the rainbow or pride flag, the lowercase Greek letter lambda (λ), the pink triangle, and the black triangle, these latter two reclaimed from use as badges of shame in Nazi concentration camps.
