Brenda Howard

American LGBT rights activist, sex-positive feminist, and polyamorist.

Known as the "Mother of Pride" for her work in coordinating the first LGBT pride march in 1970.

The next time someone asks you why LGBT Pride marches exist, or why Gay Pride Month is in June, tell them, 'A bisexual woman named Brenda Howard thought it should be.'
