Generations of Pride: Meet the trailblazers making a difference in Philadelphia’s LGBTQ+ community

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – This Pride Month, CBS News Philadelphia is proud to showcase the LGBTQ+ people in our community who have helped shape the past, are making a difference in the present and are working to change the future.

In our “Pride Generations” special, we visit Philadelphia’s Gayborhood, where you’ll find pillars of the LGBTQ+ community like Giovanni’s Room, the oldest continuously gay-operated bookstore. We will travel to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, a coastal resort that has become a mecca for the gay community.

Meet the couple behind Philadelphia staples like Bud & Marilyn’s, Barbuzzo, and Open House, and learn about Sapphira Crystalthe Philadelphia drag queen who set the City of Brotherly Love in the national spotlight during season 16 of RuPaul’s Drag Race.
