LA Pride was forced to cancel its in-person parade this year and pivot to a virtual parade. But now, in the wake of the citywide protests that have been sparked by the killing of George Floyd, LA Pride decided to stage a solidarity march. In the wake of public backlash over a permit application with the LAPD, the event is now in the hands of an all-black advisory board. On June 14, All Black Lives Matter will respond to racial injustice, systemic racism and all forms of oppression. The walk will step off from the intersection of Hollywood Boulevard and Highland Avenue at 10am (the site of the first-ever permitted Pride Parade) and head west, into West Hollywood and to the intersection of San Vicente and Santa Monica Boulevards. The organizers remind anyone participating to wear a face covering at all times, per local health orders.
