#prideparade

Not everyone can attend (or wants to attend) a Pride event in-person. Maybe there isn't one in your area, maybe they're 18+ or 21+ only, maybe they're not accessible to you, or maybe you're not out right now.

No matter the reason, we created our first Digital Pride experience in 2020 so you can join in from anywhere - and IT'S BACK AGAIN for 2023!

We'll be streaming Digital Pride on Twitch FOUR WEEKS IN A ROW during June!

🎮 June 8: Join us for some Final Fantasy XIV and a chat about how so many of us discovered our LGBTQ+ identities and communities through games like this.

📚 June 15: We're debuting the new season of Perfectly Queer, followed by drag queen story hour and a queer author showcase! Let's talk about "banned" books and the importance of queer lit!

🎙 June 22: Watch another episode of Perfectly Queer, then come chat with some amazing gaming voice actors and chat about representation in gaming!

🇲🇽 June 29: First Perfectly Queer, then a super-special Spanish language segment with It Gets Better México featuring some of your fave Colombian influencers, a Drag Race queen, and a Mexican pop star. Hint hint.

CSD 2023 The annual CSD (Christopher Street Day) Pride Month in June is a celebration of the LGBTQ+ community and a significant milestone in the history of the LGBTQ+ movement. The origins of Pride Month can be traced back to the events of the Stonewall uprising, which took place in June 1969 on Christopher Street in New York City.

The Stonewall uprising began as a response to repeated police raids on the Stonewall Inn, a popular gay and transgender bar. On that fateful night, the bar's patrons fought back against police harassment and discrimination, marking a turning point in the LGBTQ+ movement and serving as a catalyst for the modern fight for LGBTQ+ rights.

One year after the Stonewall uprising, the first Christopher Street Liberation Day Parade was held in New York City, which is considered a precursor to the CSD Pride Month. In the following years, similar parades and events were organized in various cities across the United States and around the world. These parades became a symbol of pride, visibility, and solidarity within the LGBTQ+ community.

Over time, the CSD Pride Month has evolved into a comprehensive program featuring various events such as parades, demonstrations, concerts, film festivals, exhibitions, and lectures. Its aims are to promote LGBTQ+ rights, combat discrimination, and celebrate the diversity of sexual orientation and gender identity.

The month of June holds symbolic significance as it commemorates the Stonewall uprising and celebrates the progress made in LGBTQ+ rights since then. It serves as a time for reflection, remembrance, and commitment to building a more inclusive and just society for all gender identities and sexual orientations.
