Pride Month began in honour of the 1969 Stonewall Uprising. It was an act of resistance led by trans women of colour like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera against police brutality and state-sanctioned violence. It wasn’t a parade. It was a riot. A rebellion born from survival.
Today, the fight continues. Trans rights are under attack. Queer youth are being silenced. Marginalised communities within the LGBTQIA+ umbrella still face systemic harm, even as others gain visibility.
We honour Pride by remembering its roots in radical resistance—not rainbow capitalism. Pride isn’t just a party; it’s a call to action. We march because we have to. We speak out because silence has never protected us. We celebrate our joy because it’s revolutionary to do so.
