Description
Note: This is a zine
In June, we celebrate Pride, which acknowledges and highlights the lives, legacies, loves, and joys of LGBTQIA2S+ individuals and communities. Pride events promote the rights, dignity, equality, and visibility of LGBTQIA2S+ people and are examples of liberation and activism. The first Pride events commemorated the Stonewall Uprisings, which occurred in New York City in 1969. Nebraskans celebrated LGBTQ+ dignity and visibility with picnics and gathers in the 1970s, but the first Pride parades and festivals in Nebraska would not occur until the 1980's.
