  • Learn More About Pride History
    The LGBTQ Pride That Changed American History Pride Month has not always been the impressive celebration we know it to be today. Pride parades/marches have grown tremendously over the past 50 years and it is important to remember the roots of this powerful cultural movement to understand our present. THE STONEWALL RIOTS In June of 1969, New York City police raided the Stonewall Inn, a local gay and lesbian bar. Enraged by the constant police harassment and social discrimination of the LGBTQ community, angry patrons and neighborhood residents became increasingly agitated and a full-blown riot involving hundreds of people began. Over the next five days, the protests against the raid continued, and became a pivotal turning point for LGBTQ activism. On the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, thousands of people marched from the Stonewall Inn to Central Park and adopted the theme of “Gay Pride” in retaliation against the current attitude of shame. That march soon expanded to other cities until Pride became the massive celebration that we know today. THE HISTORY OF THE PRIDE FLAG Commissioned by a well-known gay politician Harvey Milk, the rainbow flag was created in 1978 by Gilbert Baker for San Francisco’s annual pride parade, after they both felt the need for a rallying sign for the gay community. Though the flag originally featured 8 different colors, the colors later decreased to 6, with each color signifying a different meaning. Today, there’s easily a dozen different Pride flags, each representing different segments of the LGTBQ community. However, the most prevalent flag is known as the “Progress Pride Flag”, which was designed by Daniel Quasar in 2018 and features the original 6 color flag plus a triangle with brown, black, baby blue, pink, and white stripes to represent people of color and the trans community, respectively.

  • Milestones in the United States'
    MILESTONES IN THE UNITED STATES’ The landscape of LGBTQ+ rights has changed dramatically over the past 150+ years, most notably with legislation in 2015 supporting same-sex marriage. It is vital that our workplace recognize what it means to create a culture of inclusion and belonging and to understand what achieving LGBTQ+ equality truly requires. Below is a timeline that highlights the inception of LGBTQ+ organizations, important first fights against discrimination, and instrumental political and legal changes in the United States. 1867 Karl-Heinrich Ulrichs, “Father of the LGBT Movement,” becomes the first self-proclaimed homosexual to speak out publicly for gay rights at the Congress of German Jurists in Munich. 1903 The Ariston Bathhouse raid is the first anti-gay police raid on an establishment located in New York City. It results in 34 arrests, 16 charges of sodomy and 12 trials. 1924 The Society for Human Rights, the first gay rights organization in the United States, is founded by Henry Gerber in Chicago. It is shut down by police a few months later due to political pressure. 1952 The American Psychiatric Association (APA) lists homosexuality as a mental disorder in its first publication of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Immediately following the manual’s release, many medical, mental health and social science professionals criticize the categorization due to lack of empirical and scientific data. 1953 President Dwight Eisenhower signs Executive Order 10450, banning homosexuals from working for the federal government or any of its private contractors. The Order lists homosexuals as security risks, alcoholics and neurotics.

  • Harvey Milk Day 2021 Text
    PROCLAMATION Today we honor a hero for not just his own community, but for every Californian fighting for freedom and equality. Born on this day in 1930, Harvey Milk settled in San Francisco and found a thriving lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) community that faced widespread hostility and had no voice in government. Milk fearlessly organized his community and extended a hand to others, working with labor and civil rights activists who were all struggling for justice. Milk’s fierce advocacy and skillful coalition-building helped him win a seat on San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors in 1977, making him one of the first openly gay elected officials in the United States and the first openly gay person elected in California. Milk stood firm in his belief that freedom and dignity should extend to all human beings, regardless of sexual orientation or identity, at great personal risk. Milk paid the ultimate price for his advocacy when he was struck down by an assassin’s bullet just a year into his term on the Board of Supervisors. His legacy lives on in laws and policies that protect the LGBTQ community and in the hearts of generations of activists. As we honor Harvey Milk today, let us remember his words, “Hope will never be silent.” Members of the LGBTQ community – in the United States and around the world – still face discrimination and violence, rooted in the same hatred that Milk died fighting. They deserve hope, and they cannot abide our silence. We must carry on his fearless advocacy as we work towards a California for All.

  • Pride Month Information Packet
    Pride Month June 2021 Hosted by the Multicultural Center at Clackamas Community College Pride Month As we get ready to celebrate Pride Month I am reminded of the sacrifices made since the Stonewall Riots in the late 60's. I went to college in the late 80's during the AIDs crisis and remember a tremendous amount of homophobia. I know we have made strides for LGBTQ+ rights since then and I know we still have much work to do. I have always been a fan of Harvey Milk, the first openly gay elected official and want to share his quote as we celebrate Pride. Thank you for being you and thank you for choosing Clackamas Community College. "It takes no compromise to give people their rights...it takes no money to respect the individual. It takes no political deal to give people freedom. It takes no survey to remove repression." -- Harvey Milk He/Him/His President of Clackamas Community College Resources at CCC for the LGBTQ+ Community For Students: Gender and Sexualities Alliance (GSA) The Genders and Sexualities Alliance is a space for connecting with, supporting, and affirming students of all Queer identities.
