June 1st marks the beginning of Pride Month. Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex and Asexual (LGBTQIA) Pride Month is celebrated each year to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan and the ongoing pursuit of equal justice for the gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer community. Keeping in mind Camus’s principle that “Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth,” we’ve compiled a list of LGBTQIA themed books from the library’s shelves as well as a link to Kanopy’s PRIDE Collection of movies if you’d rather watch than read. Comics Plus also has a great assortment of ‘Pride Picks‘ for you to check out as well.
