Fayette Pride is scheduled to take place on August 1. This event is part of the global LGBTQ+ community's efforts to continue marching and celebrating despite rising bigotry and laws that strip them of their civil and human rights. A recent terror attack on the Berlin Pride Festival resulted in one death and 29 injuries, highlighting the importance of Pride celebrations.

The global LGBTQ+ community is urged to continue visibility efforts in the face of such incidents. Further details on local and national LGBTQ+ issues, including a state proposal affecting Medicaid coverage for low-income Georgians living with HIV, are available from local news sources.
