This month marks the 40th Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots in NYC that are seen by many as the turning point in what has become our movement for LGBT Equality. As we celebrate Stonewall and the 1st SC Pride march almost 20 years ago, we thank the pioneers both nationally and locally who have paved the way for us to live freely and relatively free from discrimination here in South Carolina.
Yet the work is not done! I encourage you to get involved, get active, get Proud and do something for the LGBT community this month. There are so many different ways!
Happy PRIDE Month from all of us at SC Pride Movement & the Harriet Hancock Center
