July is Disability Pride Month, celebrating the passing of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Boston hosted the very first Disability Pride Day in 1990.
#DisabilityJustice
Reflecting on the United States' 250th birthday, we are reminded that history belongs to the people, not the place. Just as a person's body belongs to them, not the state.

June 29 marks the peak of the six days of protests at the Stonewall Inn, & catalyzed days of unrest - empowering the modern gay rights movement.
Abortion justice & PRIDE both speak to the need for bodily autonomy & it's because of that, we keep going.

June 26, 2015 - Obergefell v. Hodges: The Supreme Court made same-sex marriage legal in all 50 states. We couldn't let this day go by without recognition. We know there's still a ton more work to do - similarly to abortion access - marriage equality is not the ceiling.

Supporting abortion means standing alongside every person seeking an abortion."

Pride started not as a celebration, but as an uprising. To understand Pride Month’s true impact, we must center the Black and brown queer and trans people who led the charge.
