The arrangers of the annual Los Angeles gay pride have proclaimed that this year’s march will be scrapped for a protest against President Donald Trump instead.
Sorry gays. It seems you’ve been put on the back burner or the sake of politics…You might want new representatives to represent your interests a little better.
A news outlet in Hollywood has released that “the annual pride parade has been canceled, ceding to the nationwide LGBT Resist March that is scheduled in many U.S. cities for Sunday, June 11, the day the Los Angeles pride parade would normally occur.”
It’s not being junked totally, though. There will still be a much smaller “Pride Festival,” but for non-political reasons: You see, West Hollywood Park, were the parade usually is held, is currently under construction.
In a press release, Christopher Street West, the social group that stages L.A. Pride Parade and Festival, said:
“Given the current political climate where divisiveness and discrimination continue to be part of mainstream dialogue, CSW is determined to make the LA Pride brand a unifying force for the LGBTQ+ community and its allies across all of Los Angeles. ”
