Pride Month is an entire month dedicated to the uplifting of LGBTQ+ voices, the celebration of LGBTQ+ culture and the support of LGBTQ+ rights.
Throughout the month of June, nationwide, parades, protests, drag performances, live theater, memorials and celebrations of life for members of the community who lost their lives to HIV/AIDS are held.
It is part political activism, part celebration of all the LGBTQ+ community has achieved over the years.
