Happy Pride Month!

When you think of “Pride,” you probably imagine celebrations and a rainbow of colors, but something you might not know is that PRIDE stands for ‘Promote Respect, Inclusion and Dignity for Everyone’. Pride is celebrated each June to commemorate the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in the USA where protestors fought back against the harassment suffered by the LGBTQ+ community at the hands of the police.

One of the best things about Pride celebrations is how fun they are!  Although the LGBTQ+ community has felt immense suffering, yet through Pride we fight back with love, music and celebration. So, in that tradition, let’s get together this June (and beyond) to celebrate the diversity and inclusion within ULI!  Here are some networking events coming up this summer…
