NextImg:Missoula, Montana Votes to Make the Pride Flag an Official City Flag

As our own Amy Curtis will write in a VIP post later today, there can be a lot of political pressure applied to organizations to fly the Pride flag in honor of Pride Month. We all remember when President Joe Biden hung a Pride flag from the White House in between two American flags for his LGBTQ picnic on the White House lawn.

And then there are smaller stories. As we reported a year ago this month, the town of Wethersfield, Connecticut, gathered for a pride event, and town Democrats refused to fly the thin blue line flag because it represented "racism and antagonism." They did honor fallen officer Aaron Pelletier, though, by lowering the city's Pride flag to half-staff

Libs of TikTok reports that, in response to overwhelming concern from students and parents about Pride flags having been removed from Missoula, Montana's classrooms, the city voted to make the Pride flag an official flag of the city.

That's probably a big part of it.

Everyone on the city council is probably straight … they just want to publicly display their "allyship." 

Now, all of those concerned students and parents who flooded the council member's email inbox can rest easy knowing that the Pride flag will hang next to, or instead of, the American flag in city classrooms.
