THEIR EXPERIENCES.
AT THE STATE CAPITOL, IN HONOR
OF GAY PRIDE MONTH, GOVERNOR
TONY EVERS ORDERED THAT THE
PROGRESS PRIDE FLAG BE RAISED
OVER THE EAST WING OF THE
BUILDING.
THE PROGRESS PRIDE FLAG WAS
CREATED TO SYMBOLIZE INCLUSION
OF MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES
WITHIN THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY,
ACCORDING TO THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE.
EVERS PROCLAIMED JUNE 2022 AS
LGBTQ+ PRIDE MONTH THROUGHOUT
WISCONSIN.
>> OUR ACTIONS MATTER, OUR WORDS
MATTER, AND DOING WHAT'S RIGHT
MATTERS.
[APPLAUSE]
LGBTQ KIDS DESERVE OUR LOVE AND
RESPECT AND SUPPORT JUST LIKE
ANY OTHER KID.
I WILL ALWAYS STAND WITH THEM.
>> PBS WISCONSIN IS UNDERWAY
WITH A MULTI-YEAR PROJECT THAT
WILL EXPLORE THE HISTORY OF
WISCONSIN'S LGBTQ+ COMMUNITIES
IN A TWO-HOUR DOCUMENTARY.
THAT SPECIAL, CALLED "WISCONSIN
PRIDE," WILL BE RELEASED NEXT
YEAR IN 2023.
