The parade marched down Hollywood Boulevard, but eventually moved to West Hollywood for several reasons: Los Angeles organized the nation’s first gay pride parade in 1970 the festival started four years later. We #RESIST homophobia, xenophobia, sexism, and racism. We #RESIST those who would take our liberty. “Not just LGBTQ+ people but all Americans and dreamers will be wrapped in the Rainbow Flag and our unique, diverse, intersectional voices will come together in one harmonized proclamation. Just as we did in 1970’s first LGBTQ+ Pride, we are going to march in unity with those who believe that America’s strength is its diversity,” the post said. “We are calling on everyone to peacefully march with us on June 11th.
Forces are gathering in government that intend to take away our hard-won basic human rights.,” LA Pride posted on its Facebook page.
