During the month of June in the United States, we commemorate and celebrate the history of the LGBTQ+ community.
The origins of Pride Month can be traced back to the Stonewall Uprising in June 1969, the spark of the LGBTQ+ rights movement. Pride month also celebrates the ruling of Obergefell v. Hodges which finally guaranteed same-sex couples the fundamental right to marry on June 26, 2015.
Pride Month helps serve as a reminder of the struggles and accomplishments of the LGBTQ+ rights movement throughout history, while also highlighting the work that still needs to be done in order to achieve full equality within our country.

RSL Pride Match June 22nd
Pride support and allyship is often expressed in the rainbow flag, with each color representing a different area of support for the LGBTQ+ community. The symbolism of the flag is as follows: red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature, blue for harmony, and purple for spirit. The rainbow flag has become a symbol for the LGBTQ+ community and Pride Month, flying throughout streets and cities, symbolizing support and inclusion for the LGBTQ+ community. Pride Month continues to and will always play a very important role in helping include, empower, support, and advocate for all individuals who identify within the LGBTQ+ community.
