Stonewall Pride Flag Restored

In a major concession to LGBTQ+ activists, the federal government has agreed to restore the rainbow Pride flag to its permanent position at the Stonewall National Monument.

The flag was removed in February following new federal guidance, sparking widespread protests and a legal challenge from groups like the National Parks Conservation Association.

The settlement ensures that the symbol of visibility and rights will continue to fly at the site of the 1969 uprising.

Advocates have hailed the reversal as a significant victory for the community's heritage and visibility.
