Short History Of Pride
In the 1950s, anxiety about homosexuals reached such a high that it led to mass firings of gay people in the federal government. But in the 1960s, with the Civil Rights Movement, it started to change. Marches and other demonstrations of solidarity informed the gay liberation movement and the first Pride parades.
Pride was, therefore, born out of protests. For many in the community, Pride became a necessary release from the harsh everyday reality of queer life in America.
