Hundreds of thousands of people gathered in San Francisco on Sunday to celebrate Pride.
You would be hard-pressed to find a person along the parade route who wasn't all smiles. Though multiple attendees told KTVU the parade had a deeper meaning this year. This year, over 400 anti-LGBTQ bills have been introduced in state legislatures across the country, according to the American Civil Liberties Union.
"Open your eyes read any piece of news that comes out, it's scary but with fear and anguish comes resilience and this is one of the most resilient communities," said Carina Pope, a parade attendee. "Everyone I love is in this community and if you're not showing up for the people you love, who are you showing up for."
