Pride Month: Ode to love

Pride Month is an important month for the LGBT community, where the celebration of love and equality takes center stage. But what is the story behind this month?

The origins of Pride Month date back to June 28, 1969, when police in New York City raided the Stonewall Inn bar, which was often frequented by the LGBT community. The police arrested many people because of their gender or sexual orientation, but instead of keeping quiet, patrons of the bar fought back against the police, especially BIPOC trans women and Marsha P. Johnson in particular as the face of the protest. These events are considered one of the most important moments in the history of the LGBT movement and became the starting point for the fight for equality and acceptance.

The first Pride March took place in New York City on June 28, 1970, to commemorate the Stonewall Inn riot. In the years that followed, similar parades and events were held in many cities around the world to fight for the rights and visibility of the LGBT community. Today, Pride Month has an important meaning in the world as it helps people to openly express their identity and stand up for who they are.

However, the significance of Pride Month goes beyond celebrating love and identity. It is also about spreading the message of equality and dignity for all people and highlighting the injustice and discrimination faced by many members of the LGBT community. It is a month for the LGBT community to raise their voices and make their demands for equality and freedom clear.

At this time, it is important to spread the message of love and tolerance. We need to remember that all people are equal and have the right to be happy and express their identity without being discriminated against. Therefore, it is also important that companies and brands stand up for the rights and dignity of the LGBT community and promote equality.

At Lab46, the focus is on the community. Conceived by, with and for gay men as a sign of free love, self-determination and a new era of freedom from worry, Pride Month in particular is a reminder of the values of our beauty products. We want to help get the message of love and equality out into the world and encourage us all to work for a better future. We invite everyone to join us and fight together for a world without discrimination and injustice, always remembering those who fought for us in the front lines.
