Happy Pride! In the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests that are still happening all over the globe, we wanted to remind our fellow queers where Pride originated. We wouldn't have Pride without the likes of Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera, or Storme DeLarverie, women of color who dedicated their lives to fighting for equality. You cannot discuss Pride without also discussing the systemic racism that targets queer black folx, especially our trans brothers and sisters. Rest in Peace Tony McDade, Nina Pop, Dominique Fells, and Riah Milton.
