It was all verbal: comments about my appearance and so on. Bullying was part of my everyday life and it carried on for eight years. I grew up in a very small town outside Gothenburg, Sweden. To recognise the importance of this month, we asked our Instructors from the LGBTTQIA+ community to share some of their stories. The month of June was chosen to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan, which was a tipping point for the Gay Liberation Movement in the United States.
June is Pride month, dedicated to celebrating the LGBTTQIA+ communities all around the world.
