Closing the end of #PrideMonth with a history lesson:

1/ Why is "Stonewall" important in LGBTQ+ history?

A. It was the site of protests after Stonewall Inn, a known LGBTQ+ bar, was violently raided by police on June 28 many years ago. It marks one of the most important events in the LGBTQ+ liberation movement.

2/ What year did the Stonewall riots happen?

A. The demonstrations lasted from June 28 – July 3, 1969.

3/ Who is now know as one of the prominent figures of the movement?

A. The “P” stood for “Pay It No Mind”🥰 She was a black activist and drag queen that was part of many pivotal moments in the liberation movement.

4/ What can we do to support the LGBTQ+ community?

A. No wrong answer. Happy #PRIDE2020!
