For this edition of our “Celebrating 10 years of photography with 10 things we love about you” initiative, we want to highlight photos on the platform that are breaking down stereotypes, bringing awareness to important issues, and helping to make the world a better, more inclusive place.

From PRIDE celebrations to protests to ending violence against women check out this roundup of incredible photography that has been uploaded over the last 10 years.
