Repression of Reclaim Pride March
On the 50th anniversary of the first Gay Pride march, organized by queer radicals and progressives, the multiracial Reclaim Pride Coalition organized thousands to attend this year’s QUEER LIBERATION MARCH FOR BLACK LIVES AND AGAINST POLICE BRUTALITY. Jay Walker, one of organizers will join us to discuss the marchs goals, if they were achieved and discuss the attacks by police on peaceful marchers at the end of the march. Three activists have serious charges against them. This coalition -- forged in 2018 against commercialization and over-policing of the Pride march – decided to focus this year on Black Lives Matter.
