On Sunday morning, people filled the streets of San Francisco for the nation’s largest gathering of LGBTQ+ individuals and allies.
SAN FRANCISCO — Logan Oretl had known he was gay for as long as he could remember. But as the 20-year-old stood by Market Street — in the thick of waving rainbow flags, dancing drag queens and a flurry of bubbles — on Sunday, he said he’d never felt more accepted.
Participants march down Market Street during the 53rd Annual San Francisco Pride Parade and Celebration in San Francisco, Calif., on Sunday, June 25, 2023. of those bills — which Republican lawmakers like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has launched a bid for the GOP presidential nomination, have championed — have been massive. Eighty-six percent of trans and non-binary youth say anti-LGBTQ+ laws have negatively impacted their mental health, according to a poll from The Trevor Project.
U.S. Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi and U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff wave to the crowd while participating during the 53rd Annual San Francisco Pride Parade and Celebration in San Francisco, Calif., on Sunday, June 25, 2023. “It’s still incredibly emotional to be here,” said Dickman, 74. “We won’t be quiet anymore, and no matter what happens, we won’t go back in the closet.”
“It really pisses me off to think that at my age, we’re going back to this fight mode,” said Haldeman, 71. “But on the other hand, it’s very energizing. It gives us a sense of purpose, and reminds us that we’re a resilient community — and that these people are not going to win.” Bubbles float in the air during the 53rd Annual San Francisco Pride Parade and Celebration in San Francisco, Calif., on Sunday, June 25, 2023.
