Major cities around the globe hosted vibrant Pride celebrations, culminating in grand parades on Sunday. New York City, having the largest celebration, saw thousands marching down Fifth Avenue, with roots tracing back to the historic Stonewall Inn. Other U.S. cities, including San Francisco and Chicago, joined in the festivities. This year's Pride takes a more defiant tone, coinciding with the anniversary of the Supreme Court's ruling for same-sex marriage while responding to recent political threats to LGBTQ+ rights. Events also unfolded globally, with cities like Paris and Tokyo participating in earlier celebrations.
This year's Pride celebrations are expected to take a more defiant stance than in recent years, reflecting back on recent political attacks against LGBTQ+ rights.
The Pride festivities come just days after the tenth anniversary of the Obergefell v. Hodges ruling, which recognized same-sex marriage across the United States.
The first pride march held in New York City took place in 1970, commemorating the anniversary of the pivotal Stonewall uprising.
The celebrations extend beyond the U.S. as cities worldwide, from Tokyo to London, continue to honor LGBTQ+ pride throughout the year.
