Pride month is a celebration of the LGBTQ+ community and its impact on individuals. The author reflects on their personal experience of attending Pride and how it helped them overcome shame surrounding their sexuality. Pride originated as a riot in New York in 1969 and has since evolved into a global movement. While progress has been made, there are still challenges to overcome, such as hate crimes and prejudice. Pride serves as both a celebration and a protest, highlighting the importance of inclusivity and love. [Extracted from the article]
