The first Rally occurred one month after the Stonewall Riots in June 1969, when 500 people gathered for a “Gay Power” demonstration in Washington Square Park and followed by a candlelight vigil in Sheridan Square. NYC Pride continues this proud tradition at 4:30pm at 154 Christopher St. PFLAG NYC will join other guest speakers to discuss how we can support and amplify the LGBTQ+ community’s call for equality.
