This year the New York City Pride March marks 50 years since the Stonewall Riot, and the parade is bigger and more colorful than ever. As the march makes its way to Greenwich Village, one street sign in particular is popping up on social media as a symbol of 2019’s much-needed focus on inclusion in the queer community.
It’s pure coincidence that Gay Street intersects with Christopher Street right near the Stonewall Inn — the “Gay” of Gay Street is a family name — but its location on the parade route makes it prime real estate for a statement on what pride means in 2019. Take a look:
