WATCH: YouTube pays tribute to LGBT community


MANILA -- As the world rejoices over the US Supreme Court ruling to legalize same-sex marriage in the entire nation, video-sharing website YouTube posted a video to pay homage to all members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

The two minute, 24-second long video was a compilation of moments of triumph for the LGBT community.

In the caption, YouTube reminisced how several people used the website to upload videos of support to the LGBT cause.

''Over the last 10 years, everyone from moms to presidents have uploaded videos in support of LGBT awareness, to stand up against bullying and discrimination, and to say together, as a community, that marriage equality matters.''

"That's why we are so excited by the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to recognize the constitutional right of all couples to marry,'' it added.

YouTube also started a campaign encouraging everyone to join in their cause to inspire change. Everyone can join the cause by uploading or sharing videos using the hashtag #ProudToLove in the title.
