pickI just recently finished this nonfiction Pride book and absolutely LOVED it! It does a really good job going over the history of the last 50 years, and it also highlights a lot of inspirational members of the queer community! It's a great book to read during Pride month! 💕📚🏳️🌈 #PrideMonth
Not really book related ( we were selling used books) but here is my best friend and my craft booth at pride festival this weekend! It was our first time doing this and we had a blast! I made scrunchies , crystal / die necklaces !
June is LGBTQ+ #Pride Month, and our sister site, #LibraryThing, is celebrating with a themed treasure hunt! Solve the clues to find rainbows (🌈) scattered around the site.

If you're not already on LibraryThing, this is a fun way to get to know the site! Plus there are prizes to be had.

Kicking off Pride month at the office! 🏳️🌈
I haven't accomplished much in the way of reading this weekend - I've been too busy celebrating Pride in Toronto!! Happy Pride everyone!!! 🏳️🌈💜🎉😍🏳️🌈😘 #queerbooks #transbooks
pickI love that this youth (age 10-up) nonfiction about Pride includes lots of young people in historical and world contexts. For example, trans woman Sylvia Rivera, who was in the first Stonewall riot, was kicked out of home and living on the street at age 10. A 12-yr-old Canadian has filed a human rights complaint arguing for removal of gender designations from all birth certificates. Lots of bright photos celebrate diversity. 💚💛❤️💜💙
Russian law bans any public displays of LGBTQ culture. At the 2014 Olympics in Sochi, 14 activists were arrested on opening day alone. Why? "Ten of them waved rainbow flags in Moscow's Red Square. The other four held up a sign quoting the Olympic Charter's ban on any form of discrimination."
"Today is the only time of year that I am myself. I don't have to hide from anyone." -Senef Cakmak, speaking at a Pride parade in Istanbul.
Youth activism has always influenced issues of social justice, and Pride shares the true stories of young people who did that for the #LGBT+ community. Fiction can also relate truths that help readers see themselves and create compassion.
