When is Pride Month? Every year, the month of June is celebrated as Pride Month in the honor of the 2SLGBTQ+ (Two-spirit, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and others) community. The history behind the Pride Month During the early morning of 28th June 1969, when homosexuality was still a criminal offence in the United States, the police raided the Stonewall in, then the most popular gay bar in NYC. Such raids were not uncommon, but this particular one was the tipping point that led to a massive protest, and hence the whole incident is famously known as the Stonewall Uprising. The first Pride March was held on 28th June 1970, on the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising. Official Acceptance of Pride Month In the US, the first-ever official Gay Pride Month was declared by President Bill Clinton in June 1999. Since then, many of the successive Presidents recognised Pride Month and it has found acceptance in several aspects. Ways to celebrate Pride Month Read the History

TVF Aspirants is a story of every person who has dared to dream, who has made efforts to achieve that dream, who had to make sacrifices on the way, who made new relationships in the journey and broke a few ones to stay true to his dreams, who had to experience failures multiple times and still remained resilient. TVF Aspirants is a web series of multiple people, some who realized their dreams, some who had to follow a Plan B and some who had to let go of everything altogether and change track for something else.

Dick's Sporting Goods Mother's Day Advertisement Like every year, Mother's Day will be celebrated this year too on the second Sunday of May. That day would be 9th May and it's time for us all to thank our mothers for every contribution and sacrifice of theirs that has helped us in every sphere of life. Those who have their mothers live with them for a major part of their lives are lucky. Especially in a situation like the current one where hundreds of thousands are dying due to COVID-19 and the second wave is yet to reach its peak, many would not be able to celebrate this day as they would have wanted to. So for those people, I want to say that stay strong yourself and keep your mother and the rest of the family members strong in these difficult times. When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Be around your mother or try to keep her calm. Make her know that her son or daughter is mature enough to handle any difficult situation. Prega News Advertisement #CoolHaiMe
