~ Boston City Council Recognizes June 2025 as Pride Month, Celebrating LGBTQIA+ Community and Calling for Continued Support
In a unanimous decision, the Boston City Council has officially declared June 2025 as Pride Month. This annual celebration honors the vibrancy, strength, and contributions of the LGBTQIA+ community while reaffirming the city's commitment to equity, inclusion, and justice.
Pride Month is not only a time for celebration and joy, but also a time to remember the ongoing struggles and historic resistance that have shaped the LGBTQIA+ civil rights movement. The tradition of Pride can be traced back to the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in New York City, led by courageous Black and Brown transgender and gender nonconforming activists such as Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera, and Stormé DeLarverie. Their acts of resistance sparked a movement that continues to this day.

Boston has played a crucial role in advancing LGBTQIA+ rights. In 2004, it became the first state in the United States to legalize same-sex marriage. The city's local activism continues to set an example for others to follow. While progress has been made with landmark federal court rulings protecting marriage and employment rights for LGBTQIA+ individuals, the Council acknowledges that there are still significant legislative and physical threats facing this community across the country.
The resolution was introduced by Councilors Santana, Breadon, and Durkan. It not only celebrates the contributions and culture of LGBTQIA+ residents but also issues a call to action for all sectors of society. Government agencies, private institutions, schools, and businesses are encouraged to stand in solidarity by supporting policies, practices, and spaces that affirm and protect LGBTQIA+ individuals in Boston.
Pride Month is a time for reflection, celebration, and action. The City of Boston stands proudly with its LGBTQIA+ community today and every day. As we celebrate Pride Month, let us also remember the ongoing fight for equality and continue to support and uplift the LGBTQIA+ community in Boston and beyond.
