This is a proud month! In 1978, the first openly gay person to win the elected offices in the United States urged the artist Gilbert Baker to create a flag that would celebrate the diversity of the LGBT community. (If the name of the milk rings a bell at the moment, it can be because in a vicious reactionary but rarely development, the Trump administration has taken away its name from the US Navy ship Harvey Milk, which is in 1978 in honor of the naval veteran and San Francisco politician.)

Prior to Stonewell, the idea that a gay rights movement may also exist – flourish alone – possibly as an airborne pork. But as the representative Sarah McBrid, the first trans member of the Congress has noticed, “The change always seems impossible until it is unavoidable.” Happy pride.
