US government reverses course on removing LGBTQ+ Pride flag from New York monument after efforts from advocates
Excerpt

The Trump administration agreed on Monday to keep flying a rainbow Pride flag at the Stonewall national monument, reversing course after removing the banner in February.

The government revealed the decision as it seeks to settle a lawsuit filed by LGBTQ+ and historic preservation groups who had sought to block the removal. A judge must still approve the agreement.

It's okay to start small.

Action is the antidote to fear and despair.
