About Philadelphia
Known as the “City of Brotherly Love and Sisterly Affection,”
Philadelphia is the birthplace of American democracy and the GLBT
civil rights movement. A historic marker across from Independence
Hall identifies the site where the first organized annual gay and lesbian
demonstrations took place on July 4 from 1965 to 1969.
Philadelphia embraces GLBT culture with a vibrant, welcoming
GLBT community that includes the “Gayborhood,” the William
Way Community Center, and events such as the Philadelphia
International Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, the largest annual GLBT
film festival on the East Coast. |
