LGBTQPride—and protest

Pride—and protest

A beautiful day, a festive parade—and a spirit of fighting back against a terrifying Supreme Court.

-

Pride returned as a big, festive event today after two years—and just days after the Supreme Court issued a ruling that threatens the lives of millions of women and could also threaten same-sex marriage.

I went looking not just for celebrations but for signs of protest. Here are some of the best:

Andy and Meghan are having none of the SCOTUS decision.
Heather shares a pretty common opinion
What else can you say?
Yes, that’s what’s next
Jordan is ready to fight back
And Sup. Myrna Melgar rode a bike with a sign that says “abortion is healthcare.”
