“Pride, from its origin, is not only a celebration, it’s also a protest,” Sharat Lin, a longtime activist from San Jose who was at the parade for Dance with Pride, told SFGATE. “Here in San Francisco, where almost everybody supports LGBTQ rights, it’s easy to forget that. But it wasn’t always that way. It was part of a struggle.”

Pride was on the move down Market Street Sunday. The parade, a true San Francisco original. It's a day to celebrate exactly who you are.

ABC7 Bay Area is proud to sponsor the 55th annual San Francisco Pride Parade and Celebration, which took place on Sunday, June 29. This year's theme was "Queer Joy is Resistance," in response to ongoing legislations attacking the LGBTQ+ community and transgender rights.
