Tens of thousands flood Tijuana for the city's 27th Pride Parade
Tens of thousands of people flooded Avenida Revolución on Saturday to celebrate Tijuana’s Pride Parade, which comes in the wake of some major victories for the gay and transgender rights movements in Mexico.
Crowds — estimated by authorities to be in the tens of thousands — lined the streets, waving, cheering and streaming video. The city’s 27th Pride Parade celebrated some major legislative advancements in recent months, according to members of Baja California’s LGBTQ community. Critics say some aspects of the new law that allows adults to change their gender are insufficient. For example, only people born in Baja California and who are over the age of 18 are allowed to change their identity, according to Cornejo. Baja California’s Human Rights Commission has been calling for changes to eliminate those exceptions.
“There were 85 marchers the first year,” said retired San Diego journalist Rex Wockner, who dug up his coverage of the 1995 parade. “It was small enough that I was able to count them one-by-one rather than guesstimate.”
