"As Pride Month draws to a close, we remember the spark that ignited the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement: the Stonewall Uprising of June 28, 1969. In the early morning hours, patrons of the Stonewall Inn stood up against police harassment and discrimination, refusing to be silenced any longer. Their courage lit a fire that burned for days and inspired a global movement for liberation and dignity.
Today, as we honor their legacy, we face a new wave of attacks on our community. Across the country, hard-won rights are being rolled back—especially for trans youth, who are now being denied access to life-saving healthcare like hormone blockers. These setbacks remind us that the fight for equality and justice is far from over.
Let us channel the spirit of Stonewall: standing together, raising our voices, and refusing to go back. Pride is protest. Pride is resilience. Pride is community.
We will not be erased. We will not be divided. We are stronger together.
