Discover the philosophical roots of the Gay Pride movement in our latest podcast episode. We unpack the distinction between Gay Pride and the hypothetical concept of 'Straight Pride', exploring how societal power dynamics inform this difference. Drawing parallels with other minority struggles like Black Lives Matter and migrant rights movements, we reveal how these endeavours challenge majority-imposed norms. We also counter the critique that such Pride movements foster division, and highlight how they benefit all of society. Uncover why the sparks of resistance at the 1969 Stonewall Inn are still relevant today, and how the Gay Pride movement continues to shape our world. Dive into this insightful exploration with us on PhilosophyMT!
