During Pride Month, we honor the LGBTQ+ community's history, including milestones like the Stonewall uprising, while acknowledging ongoing challenges. The recent political climate, particularly under the Trump administration, has seen an alarming rollback of LGBTQ+ rights, including bans on transgender service members and removal of anti-discrimination protections. This year’s celebrations serve a dual purpose: to uplift historical memory and resist current injustices which threaten the lives of vulnerable LGBTQ+ individuals, reinforcing the need for active support and remembrance.
Pride means more than a party or performative allyship; it means committing to community care and remembrance amidst rising hostility against LGBTQ+ rights.
This year, Pride feels particularly urgent as the Trump administration's deliberate attacks on LGBTQ+ rights create a chilling rollback of civil rights.
