Amazon salutes the creativity, spirit, and strength of our LGBTQIA+ community and allies. In addition to the "Pride Inside" festival, Amazon will be celebrating across various teams with the below activities and content:

Amazon Music has launched the Pride History skill for Alexa. Each day customers can ask to hear a new story from queer history paired with a song to soundtrack the moment. Narrated by Melissa Etheridge, Tegan and Sara, and Kim Petras, the feature was developed with Matthew Riemer, co-creator of the @lgbt_history Instagram account and co-author of We are Everywhere.

Ask Alexa for facts related to LGBTQIA+ Pride with the Glamazon Pride Facts Skill. The facts used in this skill are brought to you in collaboration with various organizations including the Human Rights Campaign & the LGBTQ+ Victory Institute. Just say "Alexa, open Glamazon" to get started.

You can find a collection of movies and series at https://www.amazon.com/PrideCollection that celebrates LGBTQIA+ history, stories, and actors on Prime Video . These include Amazon Originals such as Homecoming: Season 2 starring Janelle Monáe, Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning series Transparent, plus movies, series, and documentaries like Rocketman, The Watermelon Woman, Happy Birthday, Marsha!, Transmilitary, Major! and Seasons 1-5 of RuPaul's Drag Race. Stream on Fire TV, Fire Tablet, or other devices where Prime Video is available.

Finally, to kick off Pride season, Amazon Music relaunched the PROUD Playlist, Amazon Music's global playlist that spotlights new music from LGBTQIA+ + artists. The playlist will also feature brand-new Amazon Original tracks from LGBTQIA+ artists throughout the month of June - including a brand-new cover of "Mr. Brightside" from popstar Hayley Kiyoko - and will live beyond Pride Month to celebrate this community of artists throughout the year.
