Netherlands Same-Sex Marriage-20 Years

A large rainbow flag flies from the bell tower of Wester Church to mark the 20th anniversary of the first legalized same-sex marriage in Amsterdam, Netherlands, Thursday, April 1, 2021. Twenty years ago, the mayor of Amsterdam married four couples in City Hall as the Netherlands became the first country in the world with legalized same-sex marriage. It's now legal in 28 countries. The three crosses of the coat of arms of the city of Amsterdam are seen above the flag. (AP Photo/Peter Dejong)
