Hey Fedi (1of2): going to #NewWestPride alone this weekend because I really want to make new friends in the queer community.
Looking to connect with genuine, kind-hearted people. If you're going on Saturday and want some company, hit me up! Let's celebrate pride and build community together. 💖
And now, some Pride facts ICYMI
1. The first Pride was a riot. The modern Pride movement is often traced back to the #StonewallUprising in June 1969, a series of spontaneous demonstrations by members of the #LGBTQ+ community in response to a police raid at the Stonewall Inn in New York City2. #BIPOC women led the charge. The Stonewall Uprising was largely sparked by the actions of transgender women of colour, like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera, highlighting the crucial role that BIPOC individuals have always played in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights

Just a head’s up there’s a good deal of graphic imagery (both sexual and not) and strobing in this month’s #LaEsoterica feature presentation. If this isn’t for you I recommend this “The American Experience” episode about The Stonewall Uprising (https://tinyurl.com/zy3cvzpc)

July 4, 1965: #LGBTQ activists hold the first Annual #ReminderDay demonstration in Philadelphia
"On July 4, 1965, more than two dozen #LGBTQActivists demonstrate in front of Independence Hall in Philadelphia in one of the earliest #GayRights demonstrations in the United States. The 'Reminder' demonstration, held annually through 1969, drew scant mainstream media coverage at the time but is now seen as an important precursor to the wider gay liberation movement.
"'Across the street from the national shrine, a group of some 30 neatly dressed men and women picketed in a circle,' the Philadelphia Inquirer reported. 'Their signs asked for equal rights for homosexuals.'
"Protest organizer Frank Kameny set the rules for the 1965 protest. 'We had to show respectability because of the public sentiment towards gay people at that time,' he told the Associated Press in 2015.
"In the four years following the first protest, a growing number of people took part in the #AnnualReminders outside Philadelphia, where the Declaration of Independence and U.S. Constitution were debated and signed.
"In 1965, gays and lesbians were prohibited from working in the federal government under an executive order signed in 1953 by President Dwight Eisenhower.
"John S. James, who participated in the 1965 protest, told the AP in 2015 he was relieved no counterprotest took place at the Philadelphia event. He feared losing his government job if he were photographed. But an image of him was taken holding a sign that read: 'Homosexual citizens want their right to make their maximum contribution to society.'
"In 1969, the #StonewallRiots—also called the #StonewallUprising—served as a catalyst for the gay rights movement in the United States and around the world. #Gay Rights expanded throughout the 1990s and 2000s, with Massachusetts becoming the first state to legalize #GayMarriage in 2004."

Stonewall Uprising, from Catastrophe Games, is a triumph of theme, design, and mechanics, though it is emphatically not for everyone. Andrew digs into why in this Meeple Mountain review.

I'm proud to see the progress we've made in the LGBTQ+ community since 1969. It's inspiring to see the Tunnel of Love arch honoring the Stonewall Uprising and the colors of the trans flag. #Progress #LGBTQ+ #StonewallUprising #TransFlag #TunnelofLove #Equality https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/v7bvzm/trans-prom-washington-dc
