When SAGE was founded in 1978, neither the dramatic progress we have made on LGBT Iequality nor the particularly challenging moment we now face as a nation could have been imagined.

Today, much work must be done to achieve full equality and acceptance for all LGBT people. Nonetheless, we have achieved many historic milestones as a community, with SAGE’s numerous important advances prominent among those 40th anniversary legacy campaign. You’ll read about milestones.

NYC Pride’s bid was accepted during the Annual General Meeting of InterPride in Las Vegas this weekend. InterPride is the international organization of LGBT Pride organizers. “The Stonewall Uprising is considered the most significant event that ignited the modern LGBT rights movement, so it makes perfect sense to bring WorldPride to the birthplace of Pride in 2019,” said David Schneider, NYC Pride’s Stonewall 50 Director, “We are so grateful that our fellow Pride organizers from across the globe have chosen New York City for this momentous occasion.” The theme of Stonewall 50/WorldPride 2019 is “Millions of Moments of Pride,” and features an expanded two- month series of events and programs alongside NYC Pride’s historic March, Rally, PrideFest, and legendary dances for men and women.
