Happy Pride

Today marks the 55th anniversary of The Stonewall riots and it’s now been 54  years since the very first parade, Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day.

In honor of this milestone Fearsome has asked me to post some historical, and a couple current, photos. We wish you a safe and wonderful Pride 2024!

Patrons, or possibly  rioters, in front of the Stonewall Inn, note the writing on the wall above the window.

  1. Should be a required visit for any young LGBT+. Will never forget my visit there. Remember the generations that fought but didn’t live to see the fruits of their labors. 🙌 ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

  2. Happy Gay Pride my dear friend!!!!! I just got into NYC tonight. The clan and I will have our traditional toast at the Stonewall in memory of our brave brothers and sisters before us on the faithful night.
