NYC, San Francisco and other US cities capping LGBTQ+ Pride month with a mix of party and protest
UNITED STATES, JUN 29 – Pride events combined celebration with protests against anti-LGBTQ+ policies and saw a 20% drop in corporate sponsorship, according to New York City Pride organizers.
- Cities like New York and San Francisco held LGBTQ+ Pride events on Sunday, blending celebration and protest under themes like 'Rise Up: Pride in Protest.'
- The events commemorated the 1969 Stonewall riots triggered by a police raid and followed decades of activism amid recent political attacks on LGBTQ+ rights.
- San Francisco featured a large march down Market Street with concert stages, political signage including 'Fuck Trump,' and diminished corporate sponsorship from firms like Comcast.
- Studies show LGBTQ+ youth with adult acceptance have significantly lower suicide attempts, highlighting the protective effects of supportive communities and affirming environments.
- Despite challenges, Pride events continue worldwide to honor history, promote mental health advocacy, and resist ongoing efforts to roll back LGBTQ+ rights under current political climates.
