"If you are not personally free to be yourself in that most important of all human activities - the expression of love - then life itself loses its meaning." - Harvey Milk It all started in 1970 in New York City. Pride started out as a form of political resistance, advocating for the rights of LGBTQIA+ people, but now it's a celebration of queer life and sexuality. We need Pride both to celebrate queer identity and culture, and also to show how resilient the queer community is. Whether you're thinking about how to come out, have just taken that brave first step, or have been an out-and-proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community for some time, this collection of 365 inspirational quotes and snippets of rainbow-powered wisdom is the perfect book to celebrate you, the people you love and your place in a sometimes challenging world. 365 Reasons to be Proud is beautifully designed inside and out, packed full of uplifting words that champion everything LGBTQIA+ in a joyful and uniquely queer way, and includes an introduction by award-winning television writer Russell T. Davies. Highlights include: - Be a king. Be a queen. Be anything in-between - Today is an awfully good day to be queer - Use pronouns that define YOU - Every day is just another opportunity to be fabulous Also available in the series: 365 Reasons You're the Perfect Mum and 365 Reasons You're the Perfect Dad Autorid: Hamlyn
