I’ve made quite a few rainbow cakes in the past, but this is my first pride cake. There’s a lot going on in the world right now, but I didn’t want to just let pride pass by this year.
Pride Month is all about lifting up LGBTQ voices, celebrating LGBTQ culture and the supporting LGBTQ rights.
Parades, protests, drag performances and live theater usually take place throughout the US during the month of June. It’s also an crucial time to remember those who lost their lives to HIV/AIDS.
The origins of Pride Month trace back to the Stonewall Riots, which happened on June 28th, These riots inspired demonstrations across the country, which evolved into annual pride celebrations.
Pride month is also about political campaign and celebrating the progress the LGBTQ community has made.

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!! It&#;s that time of year where everything&#;s coming up rainbows, all the DJs in the clubs are fire, and you&#;re basically guaranteed to have an awkward run in with an former spouse at an event. Yaaaaas! Hopefully between the partying this month there&#;s also reflection happening around the history of pride and the fierce activism of Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera, Stormé DeLarverie and Miss Major Griffen-Gracy that led us here today. Although I don&#;t love the corporate washing and QTPOC exclusion that often accompany Pride, I do love the energy and celebration of the season.

Seeing all the happiness, force, and pride display in in the LGBTQ community is also a fantastic reminder of how far we&#;ve appear, and what we continue to clash for. Back to the topic of celebration though, I think we all know that where there&#;s a celebration, there&#;s cake, and where there&#;s cake there&#;s generally a bunch of people putting off vanishing the party because, in the prudent words of Rihanna, they
Pride month celebrates the impact that the LGBTQ+ society has made locally, nationally and internationally on the world. Pride month was born to honor the historic Stonewall riots that worked to achieve identical rights and equal opportunity for the community. Many gathered in front of the now iconic Stonewall Bar in NYC to stage an uprising to resist the harassment that local officials would consistently give to people that did not fit the stereotypical gender roles.

Today, celebrations include pride parades, picnics, parties, workshops, church services, symposia and concerts, and LGBTQ Pride Month events attract millions of participants around the world.
Pride continues to provide immature members of the Queer community hope and happiness through celebrating their differences and remind
I’ve been planning this piece since January, but didn’t get to writing it due to the pandemic and protests. I’m posting it now, though, because there have been several very interesting Pride-related updates this summer and because the cisheteropatriarchy and religious bigotry do not rest.
Conservative Christianity, which is the kind I’m talking about in this post, is also obsessed with the gender binary and using religious text to forgive everything from colonization to homophobia. I try my best to say exactly what I mean, so when I use the phrase “white Christian cisheteropatriarchy,” it’s not because I’m trying to sound intelligent or “woker than thou,” but because it gets quickly to point and names the particular confluence of problems at function here. Furthermore, Christianity and queerness are not two ends of one political spectrum &#; you can be a queer person of faith and/or a lgbtq+ Christian, and different churches and sects (and the individuals within them) vary quite a lot with including, hiring, and exhibiting up for the LGBTQIA+ community.
So! If you are a cisgender, hete
