when is pride month exactly and why a viral meme claims it’s been moved to November? Here’s the real answer.
A new rumor is spreading across social media, claiming that Pride Month has been officially rescheduled from June to November “to avoid summer heat and boost off-season tourism.” The viral posts include a fake screenshot from a supposed government press release, but this is completely false. Pride Month is still celebrated in June, commemorating the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, and no official organization has changed the date. The confusion stems from a satirical article shared by a parody account, which users have mistaken for real news. Don’t fall for it—Pride Month remains in June, and the November claim is a hoax.
