Pride

The Pride Parade and street dance were fantastic! The streets were alive with music, laughter, love, community spirit - pride.
I chose this photo to blip from the approximately 300 shots I took. We can't be smug or complacent about events like this taking place in our community. Not all of us are accepting of differences or free from prejudice. Last Sunday, a pride flag was burned. The woman in this photo gathered the ashes and made this banner to demonstrate that we will not be intimidated. We must stand together, stand up for the rights of all, regardless of race, sexual orientation or gender. I could rant on and on, but I'm tired...
