Pride was born as a riot, and has always been an act of defiance.

Pride was born as a riot, and has always been an act of defiance. During my life, I survived an internment camp. I came out at 68. I've watched rights get won and now watch them being rolled back. Yet I'm still here, still proud, and still holding Brad's hand. They have never been able to extinguish us or our joy. And they won't start now. Happy Pride, friends. Let's make this the loudest, proudest one yet.

️@georgetakei I had been stuck inside at a computer screen for so long, I had forgotten about the progression of the seasons. So thanks for the reminder to step outside and enjoy the colors of the season.

@Simon Willcocks Same here. So sad to realize that soooo many people are/were not allowed to be who they are/were for ages. -
