Marking 20 years of legal change, SALC reflects on its groundbreaking work defending LGBTIQ+ rights through strategic litigation across Southern Africa.

Did you know that South Africa’s Pride celebrations, especially Pride Month in October, honour our country’s very first Pride march back in 1990? That march was held during apartheid when it was still illegal to be LGBTQ+. It was an act of defiance, courage, and hope β€” and it laid the foundation for every Pride that followed.

Today, Pride events remain a powerful mix of celebration, activism, and remembrance β€” reminding us that the struggle for full LGBTQ+ equality and inclusion continues.

✨ We’d love to hear from YOU:
What was your first Pride like?
What keeps you coming back to Pride every year?
Or, if you stopped going β€” what made you feel you’d never attend a Pride again?

Your story matters. Share it with us in the comments. πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ’¬
