Annual Reminder
LGBTQ demonstrations in Philadelphia, United States
The Annual Reminders were a series of early pickets organized by gay organizations, held yearly from 1965 through 1969. The Reminder took place each July 4 at Independence Hall in Philadelphia and were among the earliest LGBTQ demonstrations in the United States. The events were designed to inform and remind the American people that gay people did not enjoy basic civil rights protections.
