Celebrate Pride Month with these incredible films streaming for free on Tubi

LOS ANGELES - Tubi has thousands of movies and shows for any occasion. This summer, celebrate and kick off Pride Month with Tubi’s massive collection of content celebrating the incredible contributions and accomplishments of the LGBTQ community as the nation approaches the 52nd anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. 

June marks the beginning of Pride Month, a celebration of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer community since the Stonewall Riots, an uprising by young gays, lesbians and transgender people in New York City which began on June 27, 1969. Then, protesters clashed with police near a bar called the Stonewall Inn. The riots would go on to become a vital catalyst in expanding LGBT activism nationwide and abroad

From the perspective of veteran activists, the progress has been astounding. In 1969, every state but Illinois outlawed gay sex, psychiatric experts classified homosexuality as a mental disorder, and most gays stayed in the closet for fear of losing jobs and friends.

Today, same-sex marriage is the law of the land in the U.S. and at least 25 other countries. LGBT Americans serve as governors, big-city mayors and members of Congress, and one — Pete Buttigieg — is waging a spirited campaign for president.

Throughout the years, hundreds of artists have surfaced to use a variety of mediums and platforms to not only express the progress made by the LGBTQ community, but also to express where there is still more work to do.
