    Secretary's Remarks: In Recognition of Gay and Lesbian Pride Month 2009

    In Recognition of Gay and Lesbian Pride Month 2009

    Hillary Rodham Clinton
    Secretary of State
    Washington, DC

    June 1, 2009

    Forty years ago this month, the gay rights movement began with the Stonewall riots in New York City, as gays and lesbians demanded an end to the persecution they had long endured. Now, after decades of hard work, the fight has grown into a global movement to achieve a world in which all people live free from violence and fear, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
