With only ten days left of National LGBTQ Pride Month, it’s not too celebrate #Pride2017 on social media. In honor of pride, several social media platforms have released new ways to participate in the celebration through various hashtags, effects and more. Check out HRC’s guide on some of the best ways to get involved and show your support.

Filters and Frames

Facebook and Instagram have added new rainbow frames as well as stickers, effects and rainbow paint brushes to liven up your photos with various rainbow accessories. Snapchat has a new rainbow brush as well as many stickers and filters. In the Facebook camera, you can try even try on different masks.

Additionally, HRC has a special Facebook profile frame that is a limited-time offer for our Summer of Action.

Hashtags
