Pride Month Activities
Rep your flag!
Grab your rainbow, bi, lesbian, pan, ace, or any other flag of your preference and wave it with Pride! Each of the rainbow flag’s original eight colors has a meaning: pink for sex, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sun, green for nature, turquoise for magic, blue for peace, and purple for spirit. Don’t have a flag? Then wear your colors on a t-shirt, a hairband, or on the laces in your shoes. You could even paint your face with the colors that represent you — be as creative as you like to show your support.
Join in a Pride March
Run, walk, skip or dance in a Pride March. You don’t need to identify as LGBTQ+ to attend a Pride March. Everyone is welcome to show their support of gay rights and equality for all, so check out what’s happening in your community and go join in the fun!
Get some know-how
Watch a movie that will give you more information about the serious message behind Pride Month. It isn’t just about festivals, rainbows and glitter. So, take some time to learn about the people who helped bring this movement together. “Milk” starring Sean Penn is a great movie to kick off with and charts the life of the first openly gay politician, Harvey Milk.
Why We Love Pride Month
It’s for everyone
Pride Month is a time when the LGBTQ+ community comes together to celebrate acceptance of sexual diversity, but that doesn’t mean you can’t join in if you’re a bog standard hetero who’s proclivities are firmly on the vanilla side of life.
It’s fun with a capital F
It’s your chance to come out of your shell and join in with any number of parades, festivals, concerts and events going on in your community. It also gives you the chance to meet new like minded people, knowing that this is a celebration of acceptance and love.
It shines a light on LGBTQ+ issues
The emphasis may be on fun, but it's also the perfect time to think about and discuss issues related to the gay rights movement, especially as it gets more attention from news media during this time. From gay marriage and adoption to transgender rights. Although huge strides have been made for equality over recent years, we all still have a long way to go. Pride Month is a great opportunity to learn about the fight for what's right, and to pitch in as well!
