15 Photos From the NYC Dyke March DykeMarch pride
All over the world but in New York City in particular, the final weekend of Pride month culminates in massive celebration, with the flagship event being the Pride Parade. A weekend of endless parties and activations, both corporate sponsored and not, make for a full schedule of fun. However, the origins of Pride Month were not a celebration, but a riot: a day in history where a group of people took a stand against their oppressors and said enough is enough.
," the annual event's official site declares. On Saturday, June 29, thousands of self-identified"Dykes" of all backgrounds gathered at Bryant Park. As rain began to fall, spirits were only reinvigorated as the march down 5th Avenue to Washington Square Park started. Volunteer marshals blocked off streets forming hand holding daisy-chains, creating a metaphorical and literal safe space for the marchers. There was chanting, there was screaming and there were drums banging.
When the masses arrived at Washington Square Park, the protest turned into a celebration. While"Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" echoed through the park, people danced, frolicked in the fountain, embraced one another, laughed with each other, and kissed with joy. The sun set that day upon a gathering of strong, powerful people who had been heard, seen, and truly left their mark on Pride Month 2019.
