From secrecy to pride—how did the LGBTQ+ community fight for equality? Throughout history, LGBTQ+ individuals have faced persecution, discrimination, and legal oppression, yet they have also built thriving communities and resisted injustice. This book traces the history of LGBTQ+ rights, from ancient civilizations where same-sex relationships were accepted to the criminalization and medical pathologization of queer identities in later centuries. The 20th century saw the rise of LGBTQ+ activism, with milestones such as the Stonewall Riots (1969) igniting a global movement. The legalization of same-sex marriage, anti-discrimination laws, and increasing visibility in media represent hard-won victories. But challenges remain, and this book explores the ongoing struggle for equality. If you want to understand the resilience and triumphs of the LGBTQ+ community, this book is a powerful read.
