For the LGBTQ+ community, June is Pride Month, usually a time of celebration. We flock to our nearest cities to join in the festivities and experience the beautiful diversity of the Pride parade. This year, we're staying home to protect ourselves, our loved ones, and our communities, but that doesn't mean we can't still experience a Pride parade together! Let's explore the many groups you might see attending Pride parades around the world, from the bedazzled Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to the winged Angel Action activists. We'll discuss the history of the Pride parade and the many groups participating. Then, through a mix of images/video clips from popular media and from past real-life Pride parades, we'll watch a virtual 2020 Pride parade unfold together. 

This class is part of a collaboration among LGBTQ+ Outschool teachers. You can learn more about the classes by OOP during Pride month and beyond here: https://oopfestival.blogspot.com/
