A Thorough Examination of LGBTQ+ Pride Month
6/17/2026
| Event Details |
| This training will provide attendees with the opportunity to understand
the social, cultural and political influences that contributed to the
Stonewall Riots, which laid the foundation for the modern-day Pride
movement in the United States, as well as contemporary events that
continue to inspire and motivate LGBTQ+ activists in the United States.
Attendees will gain an understanding of how anti-sodomy laws, which
outlawed homosexual behavior until 2003, following the Supreme Court
ruling in Lawrence v. Texas, as well as the Lavender Scare and the
categorization of LGBTQ+ people as pathologized by the field of
psychiatry, contributed to the Gay Liberation movement of the 1970s
which ultimately culminated in the modern day Pride movement. Attendees
will also gain a rudimentary understanding of terminology and the
overall experiences of LGBTQ+ people. CLE Credits: 1 DEI Credit Register here: https://www.pghparalegals.org/events |
