June is LGBTQ+ Pride Month, a time when said community comes together to celebrate the freedom of being themselves. Pride Month is the anniversary of five days of protest in June 1969 after Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera and others stood up to police officers who were arresting community members at New York City’s Stonewall Inn. This issue is dedicated to highlighting events and resources that Bruins have organized to continue the work to ensure an equitable and affirming society for all.
