Pride Month begins June 1 with celebrations across the world | Here’s what to expect, history of LGBTQ+ marches, events

The month of pride begins with events all over the world starting from the end of this week.

It is an annual series of marches and other gatherings to celebrate LGBTQ culture and rights.

In her heart, pride is a party and protest.

In the United States this year, this means publicly about a large number of policies that impose restrictions on transgender people who are trying to end the programming of diversity, shares, and integration in government, education and companies.

Here is a look at the roots of the event, events and topics this year.

When the month of pride began

The global celebration of Gay Pride began in late June 1970, a year after the violent police raid at Stonewall Inn in New York, a gay bar.

While many people LGBTQ+ have kept their own identities, on June 28, 1969, RAID ignited a series of public protests and motivated the gay rights movement.

Praid’s first week appeared in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco, and since then they have grown to other cities. In the calendar events in Philadelphia this weekend; New Orleans on June 14; Chicago on June 21 and 22; And New York during the weekend on June 28 and 29. Several other events in large cities and small towns are also scheduled.

There are Braid celebrations all over the world, including in Tokyo on June 8; Toronto on June 27-29; Sao Paulo on June 22; And Paris on June 28.

Some events are also outside June. World PRIDE, a semi -annual event held this year in Washington, DC, began in May and goes until June 8. Pride in London in July; A great celebration in Rio de Janeiro in November and Atlanta in October.

Former President Bill Clinton announced June as a month of gay pride and ideals in 1999, on the occasion of the first time that an American president made it.

How Trump targets transit policies and DEI policies
When President Donald Trump returned to his post in January, he quickly tried to retreat LGBTQ+.

It specifically targets the transgender people who have policies that stopped allowing people to change the sex included in their passport, remove the sexual transit military forces and seek to stop using federal insurance programs to pay the price of gender care for transgender people under the age of 19, and to keep sexually converted athletes from sports competitions and women.

All of these changes are challenged in court.

His actions follow years of policies in Republican -controlled countries that prevent the care of sex regulation with sexually transformed minors and dictate sexually transgender people who can play it, school and other public bathrooms that are allowed to use. The United States Supreme Court is expected to rule this month on whether Tennessee’s ban on medical treatment is constitutional.

One of Trump’s orders called to remove signals to what he and some other “gender ideology” calls from government publications and web sites.

As a result: the signals were removed to the transgender people from government web sites, including those for the national monument, the site of the event that inspired pride.

About half of our adults found how Trump deals with the issues of transgender people. About 4 out of 10 voters agree to his job as president in general.

But supporting his individual policies on transgender people is not uniform, with a clearer consensus against the policies that affect young people.

This year’s celebrations in the United States

Milwaukee’s Pridefest organizers are prepared for about 50,000 people in this event scheduled from 5 to 7 June.

Wes Chaveer, President and CEO of Milwaukee Pride, Inc. said. “We feel that people will appear, and this is their protest.”

The subject of the event is “celebrating the power of pride” and for the first time, one of the stages of entertainment will include only one night transformer. Shafir said this is a deliberate step in response to Trump’s policies. Another night, the theater will only have a universe.

Jeremy Williams, executive producer of Phili Pride 365 in Philadelphia, said he did not expect to protest more than he was in the past.

“Everyone is only there to be together,” he said.

The tenth anniversary of gay marriage throughout the country
One of the prominent landmarks that is likely to be celebrated: this month represents the tenth anniversary of Uupraville against the United States Supreme Court, which recognized gay marriage in the country. It was a flat event in creating rights for LGBTQ+ members throughout the country.

About two -thirds of the adults of LGBTQ+ in the United States said the issue made the nation more acceptable to couples of the same sex, according to a survey at the Pew Research Center last week.

The poll found that LGBTQ+ people do not always feel acceptable. About 6 out of 10 said they see “a lot” or “a good amount” of social acceptance of those who are gay, gay, or two sex. But about 1 out of 10 said that the same applies to non -bilateral and transgender people.

What are the companies that are back away from care?

Many major companies have retracted the sponsorship of pride events this year.

Among them: Anheuser-Busch, a beer factory in St. Louis, refused to sponsor PRIDEFEST in its mother city after three decades, leaving organizers less than $ 150,000 from last year’s budget.

NYC PRIDE said about 20 % of corporate sponsors have dropped or reduced support, including Pepsico and Nissan. The car maker said it was reviewing all marketing costs.

In other cities, such as Kansas City, Missouri, the events of Pride lost about half of its budgets.

Many companies that have declined did not explain the reason for this to AP. But some experts see change as part of a wider decline than the brand activity.

However, the groups behind many PRIDE events say that some companies have continued to contribute, but have requested not to be publicly included as sponsors.
