Pride Month dates back to 1969 when the LGBTQ community found it difficult to be themselves. Police often raided places where the people of this community gathered or met. One such place was the Stonewall Inn. Many members of the community were the patrons at the Stonewall Inn. However, on June 28, 1969, a police raid occurred at the Inn. This resulted in protests, and people were angry at the ill-treatment they had been put through. There was a six-day protest, considering the issue. This event is now called Stonewall Riots, which was the major fight against ill-treatment and demand for equal rights for the LGBTQ community. On the first anniversary of the Stonewall Inn incident, the community held the first-ever gay pride parade. With time, the pride celebration grew to what we now call Pride Month.
