GAY PRIDE MARCH…..NYC 2017

The NYC PRIDE MARCH started in 1970 as a civil rights demonstration on the first anniversary of the STONEWALL Uprising.

Now it is one of the world’s most famous LGTB events.  Today there were 350 marching contingents…………37,000 marchers and 2 million spectators.

It was a day for LOVE…………and pride in being gay.

It is a year when gays are under stress over TRUMP’S policies.  There were many groups in the parade today focused more on protest rather than celebration.

 

TITS and ASS add to the fun…..GAY PRIDE NYC 2017
