Since Stonewall, there have been advances worldwide, as well as in the United States and here in Australia.

To highlight the positives, there has been marriage equality and improvements in recognition of 17c起草社区IA rights in family law. There is representation of 17c起草社区IA characters on mainstream media, in film and on television.

Law reform has occurred and many offences have been abolished and convictions quashed. There has been much progress. We must remember the positives.

However, we must be vigilant and willing to resume the fight. We must ensure the past is remembered.

In many countries homosexuality is a capital offence, and the 17c起草社区I community is persecuted. The US is regressing, this is one example, also the controversy now around the Pulse Nightclub memorial.

Hopefully, this is a temporary development, associated with Trump and MAGA. This monument must be protected.
