Happy Pride from Jessica Stern and IGLHRC

Friends,

This weekend, many of us are celebrating Pride—some of us in the streets with thousands and others indoors or in private spaces, away from the prying eyes of police and hostile communities.

Even as we celebrate, we know that congregating with our community is a human right that many are denied. Many of our friends and colleagues face violence or persecution—in places like Russia, Uganda, and even conservative towns within the United States—for the simple act of standing in the street as who we are.

But this does not stop us from being proud of our communities and our joint work to make the world a better place.

So, have fun and share your Pride with us by tweeting us @iglhrc or tagging us on Facebook. Happy Pride!

With warmth and solidarity,

Jessica Stern
Executive Director

P.S. This Pride weekend, consider giving a gift to IGLHRC in honor of global solidarity. If you join our Global Dignity Fund, your gift of $5, $10, or $20 monthly will go a long way toward helping us advocate for LGBT rights globally throughout the year.
