2021 Reclaiming Pride March in New York City
Jodi Nicole of Reclaim Pride NYC
Reclaiming Pride Amid Attacks on Roe v.Wade
Out-FM hosts John Riley and Naomi Brussel interview Reclaim Pride spokesperson Jay Walker and Jodi Nicole about the 4th annual Queer Liberation March titled the Queer Liberation March for Trans and BIPOC Freedom, Reproductive Justice, and Bodily Autonomy. The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Intersex, Asexual, Two-Spirit Plus (LGBTQIA2S+) people’s march will take place on Sunday, June 26th, starting in Foley Square at 2 PM and ending in Washington Square Park.
The Reclaim Pride Coalition’s announcement comes shortly after the bombshell leak that the Supreme Court will be overturning Roe v. Wade in June. Organizers say they hope the emphasis on trans lives in the context of reproductive justice will encourage marchers to look beyond just reinstating Roe v. Wade.
“Trans people in this country have been under consistent, appalling attacks for years, and we need the LGB community to finally show up for their trans siblings. We cannot be standing on the sidelines while states like Alabama are criminalizing trans healthcare and Texas is attempting to criminalize parental supervision of their trans childrens’ care” said Leah Entenmann, an organizer with RPC.
Out-FM will ask about the recent attacks on Trans and Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual people by the far right and what type of strategies we need to use to fight them.
