Happy Pride!

June is Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Pride Month and there are exhibits and celebrations and events of all kinds, across the country and around the world.  I want to call a few of these to your attention.
 
First, check out the Library of Congress website at http://www.loc.gov/lgbt/ for a number of fine essays and listings of numerous exhibits and events.  Discover the Champions of Change on the White House website by clicking HERE.  There are some wonderful stories here, so check it out. 
 
The first letter in the LGBT is often overshadowed by the second letter.  Click HERE to check out some important information from the National Women's History Project.
 
There are of course Pride Parades and festivals this month (the one in San Francisco isn't until the last weekend of June) and that is what a lot people think about when you mention LGBT Pride.  What though does it mean to YOU?  Why is it necessary to have LGBT Pride, or is it necessary?  Share your thoughts.
