This June marks the fiftieth anniversary of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) Pride Month. The first Pride March was held in New York City on June 28, 1970, the one year anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising. While the first Pride March was estimated to have between 3,500 and 5,000 participants, recent marchers have numbered in the millions.
