June is #PrideMonth in the United States. It celebrates the lives and contributions of LGBTQ Americans and commemorates the anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising. How much do LGBTQ Americans know about the history of LGBTQ people in the U.S.? In our nationally representative survey of LGBTQ adults, 32% said they are extremely or very informed about this history. Another 44% said they are somewhat informed. We also asked those who are at least a little informed about LGBTQ history where they learned about it. What’s your favorite fact from LGBTQ history? Where did you learn about it? Let us know in the comments. ABOUT PEW RESEARCH CENTER Pew Research Center is a nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes and trends shaping the world.
