Faces from Minneapolis Pride 2018. The nice thing about editing months after the event, is that by the time next April rolls around I will have enough to print for a Pride theme showing at a local coffee house. Kind of a primer for Mpls Pride 2019.
Fall will be upon us soon, and then of course Winter. My enthusiasm for outdoor photos in Winter wanes a bit.
Meanwhite. I culled these out . . . wimples and veils seem to have made a comeback this year at Pride. Haven't seen so many wimples and veils since I was in Catholic elementary school taught by Franciscan nuns.

The Miami White Party is an annual fundraiser party for HIV/AIDS research. The all-white clothing theme was chosen by co-founder Frank Wager because, as he said, "White stands for purity. White is elegant, non-political, non-combative and makes people look just plain beautiful." The Miami party began as a small fundraising event for the Health Crisis Network in 1985.

NYC Pride March
47 years after the Stonewall Riots of June 28, 1969
RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 2 float with Drag Race stars: Coco Montrese, Roxxxy Andrews, Tatianna, Detox Icunt, dancer Nico Tortorella and R. Sky Palkowitz The Delusional Diva
The 47th NYC Pride March started at noon on June 26, at 5th Avenue and 36th Street in Manhattan. The route proceeded through Midtown down 5th Avenue, before heading west into Greenwich Village, ending at Christopher and Greenwich Streets.
Heritage of Pride, Inc. (HOP / NYC Pride) is a non-profit organization that plans and produces New York City's official LGBT ( Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) Pride events each year.
Heritage of Pride hosts New York City’s Pride events in commemoration of the Stonewall Riots of 1969.
Stonewall riots happened 47 years ago in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn, located in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City.
The Stonewall riots were a series of spontaneous, violent demonstrations by members of the LGBT community against a police raid that took place in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of New York City. They are widely considered to constitute the single most important event leading to the LGBT liberation movement and the modern fight for LGBT equal rights in the United States.
The 2016 Pride March happened on the one-year anniversary of the Obergefell v. Hodges decision, the landmark Supreme Court case that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.
The 2016 march also happened to come just days after Stonewall Inn, the famous gay bar located in Greenwich Village, was designated as the first national LGBT monument in the U.S.
On Monday, June 27th 2016 the Stonewall National Monument (U.S. National Park Service) designation took place in New York City. The monument sits across the street from The Stonewall Inn, a National Historic Landmark known for its involvement in the beginning of the modern struggle for civil rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) Americans.
Remarks from - President Barack Obama June 2016
"I’m designating the Stonewall National Monument as the newest addition to America’s national parks system. Stonewall will be our first national monument to tell the story of the struggle for LGBT rights. I believe our national parks should reflect the full story of our country – the richness and diversity and uniquely American spirit that has always defined us. That we are stronger together. That out of many, we are one."
Hillary Clinton made an unannounced appearance and was joined by New York State Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio and the Rev. Al Sharpton

NYC Pride March Director 2016 - Julian Sanjivan
According to organizers, around 30,000 people marched in the parade itself. Law enforcement officials expected that there would be around 2.5 million attendees in total, and that more or less comports with CBS News' reporting, which found that almost 2 million spectators joined the marchers.
