June marks the 45th anniversary of the historic Stonewall Riots in New York City, an event that helped crystalize the modern-day LGBT rights movement as we know it. Pride Month is a chance to make visible the issues that the LGBT community still faces and to celebrate how far we've come.
In this spirit, we’ve partnered with MasterCard to show you how cities around the world are publicly showing their pride. Whether you’re in San Francisco or Sao Paulo, the message is abundantly clear: #AcceptanceMatters.
