Pride documents the milestones in the fight for equality, from the victories of early activists, the inauguration of defiant and celebratory parades worldwide, to the gradual acceptance of the LGBTQ+ community in politics, sport and the media, and the passing of legislation barring discrimination. With key figures and notable moments, events and breakthroughs of the movement all covered with the reproduction of rare images and documents, and featuring essays from notable figures, Pride is a unique and comprehensive account of the ongoing challenges facing the LGBTQ+ community, and a celebration of the equal rights that have been won for many as a result of the sacrifices and passion of this mass movement.
