ReconcilingWorks honors the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots—a watershed moment in LGBTQIA+ history when queer and trans people, especially trans women of color, resisted harassment, violence, and systemic oppression and sparked a movement for liberation.
Stonewall reminds us that Pride began as protest. It began with courage, resistance, and a refusal to accept injustice as normal.
And that call remains.
As anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation, harmful rhetoric, racism, transphobia, and exclusion continue to impact our communities, remembering Stonewall means more than celebration—it means action.
Here are a few ways you can make a difference today:
🏳️⚧️ Contact your elected officials and advocate for LGBTQIA+ protections.
🏳️🌈 Support LGBTQIA+ organizations doing justice work in your community.
📚 Learn from and amplify the voices of trans people, queer people of color, and LGBTQIA+ faith leaders.
💒 Encourage your faith community to take visible steps toward welcome, advocacy, and inclusion.
❤️ Have brave conversations when harmful language or misinformation shows up.
At ReconcilingWorks, we believe faith calls us not only to welcome, but to advocate, organize, and act.
May we honor Stonewall not just in remembrance—but in the choices we make today.
