Purple Friday: Celebrating LGBTQ+ Inclusion and Solidarity
Purple Friday is a significant day for LGBTQ+ communities and allies across the United Kingdom, particularly in Scotland. It is a day dedicated to promoting inclusion, standing in solidarity with LGBTQ+ individuals, and raising awareness about the challenges they face.
LGBTQ+ History Month: A Celebration of Struggle, Progress, and Pride
LGBTQ+ History Month is an annual observance that celebrates the history, achievements, and contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) individuals. It also serves as an opportunity to reflect on the struggles faced by the community, promote awareness, and advocate for equality and inclusion. In the United Kingdom, LGBTQ+ History Month is celebrated every February, coinciding with the abolition of Section 28, a law that previously prohibited the promotion of LGBTQ+ content in schools. The month provides an essential platform for education, activism, and the recognition of LGBTQ+ identities across different sectors of society.
