The LGBT originated in the United States and was first celebrated by the bisexual activist Brenda Howard; she was called the “Mother of Pride.” She also initiated the idea of celebrating it a week full of series of events and activities, which later developed into the annual LGBT celebration held every June.

This would not have been successful without the impact of some activists such as Robert A. Martin (aka Donny the Punk) and L. Craig Schoonmaker. They made the word “Pride” widely known, which was later used to describe the event.

President Bill Clinton declared the month of June as Gay and Lesbian pride month in 1999, and President Barack Obama passed the bill on May 28, 2010, and declared June LGBT pride month.

Pride Month has been celebrated for decades, as it had been celebrated since the 50s. However, it did not become an official recognized month until 1999. This is when it became official by President Bill Clinton. At that time, it was called Gay & Lesbian Pride Month. Clinton went on to formally recognize it the next year, which was the last year of his presidency.

During George W. Bush's presidency, the month was not recognized and was not acknowledged again until 2009, when President Barack Obama recognized it. During his tenure, he proclaimed the month of June as LGBTQ month.
