Pride Month, a time to celebrate LGBTQ history, culture, and a time to keep fighting for LGBTQ rights and equality, is underway.

The city’s main pride march on 5th Avenue takes place on June 30, but there are plenty of events taking place across the five boroughs before then.

Brooklyn Pride kicks off Monday, featuring a full week of events throughout the borough. It culminates with Brooklyn Pride Day on Saturday.

NY1 anchor Rocco Vertuccio spoke with two of the organizers from Brooklyn Pride, Mickey Heller and Cam Moore, about this year’s festivities.
