HYBRID: Gay Pride - More Than A Parade
Date/Time
June is Pride Month, which is dedicated to celebrating lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) pride. It honors the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan, which was a turning point for the Gay Liberation Movement in the United States. What started as an angry mob's violent reaction to a police raid in 1969 ignited the gay rights movement and has over time grown to become a joyous annual celebration. Explore the origins of Pride Month and why is has grown into an annual tradition observed in America and many other countries. Led by entertainment historian John Kenrick, who is the Curator for the Museum of Broadway in New York City and author of The Complete Idiot's Guide to Amateur Theatricals.
