Pride celebrations and marches have gone virtual this year due to the global COVID-19 crisis. Many in-person events have been canceled but many organizations have come up with creative ways to celebrate your LGBTQ+ Pride Online.

In the Philippines, Metro Manila Pride is celebrating the entire Pride Month with a series of activities including regular Pride Speaks Hangouts, as well as Pride March and Festival on June 27. Their Facebook page highlights that Pride will continue to be a protest. Although the community cannot physically gather to march, it is still united in its advocacy and the heed for equal rights.

The rest of the world is also waving the rainbow flags in line with the occasion which includes programming that seeks to amplify the Black Lives Matter movement. Below is a list put together by Ashley Novak for CNN with options for marching in a Pride parade or attending a workshop in the comfort of your home:
