  • June 2025 - Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ+) Pride MonthJune 1, 2025

    June 2025 - Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ+) Pride Month

    Heart and rainbow background with the words "Happy Pride" in pride progress colors.

    “We do not have to romanticize our past in order to be aware of how it seeds our present. We do not have to suffer the waste of an amnesia that robs us of the lessons of the past rather than permit us to read them with pride as well as deep understanding. We know what it is to be lied to, and we know how important it is not lie to ourselves. We are powerful because we have survived.”

    – Audre Lorde. Sister Outsider

    Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ+) Pride Month is celebrated each year in the month of June to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan.

    See below for select VSCS Libraries materials by LGBT+ authors and directors or that celebrate LGBTQ+ history and culture.
