During Pride parades worldwide, communities celebrated LGBTQ+ rights while also protesting political attacks in the U.S. by the Trump administration. In New York, the parade theme 'Rise Up: Pride in Protest' emphasized resistance against recent executive orders targeting transgender individuals. Despite corporate cutbacks, revelers held signs urging the need for both joy and protest. The event also marked the legacy of the 1969 Stonewall Riots and raised awareness of ongoing challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community amidst hostile policies.
Our joy is our resistance, reading a sign held by a reveler wearing samba feathers at NYC's Pride parade, highlighting a blend of celebration and protest.
At a time when trans youth are under attack, queer art is being erased, NYC Pride remains focused on advocating for our community as we face an onslaught of attacks.
