Show your support for Stonewall National Monument! Join us on June 30th as National Parks Conservation Association takes part in the World Pride March in New York City.
Not only does 2019 mark the 100th anniversary of NPCA, it’s also the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising, a pivotal moment in American LGBTQ history. NPCA led the campaign to designate Stonewall as a national monument in 2016, believing the location merited protection and this important story deserved to be told. Stonewall National Monument is the first national park site in the country dedicated to LGBTQ history and recognizes the LGBTQ community’s ongoing struggle for civil and human rights.
Come join NPCA in NYC on June 30th and show your support for Stonewall as we continue to celebrate 100 years of advocating for national parks across the country.
We will gather at NPCA’s midtown office for lunch, then move to our march location by 3 p.m. All are welcome!
