Celebrate Pride Month in the Jewish Community
The month of June is LGBTQ+ Pride Month, originally designed to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in Manhattan, which were a major turning point for LGBTQ+ rights in the United States.
I grew up in a liberal household where my parents told me to be what I wanted and to not change for anyone.
Years ago I learned to say, “My daughter has a girlfriend.” But it wasn’t an easy transition for me – and it certainly wasn’t easy for my daughter, partly because of me.
I was the happiest woman on earth when she was born.
