The purpose of the gatherings was to register voters, ratify safety measures for the LGBTQ+ community and assert a sense of identity for marginalized groups. The original theme of early parades was Gay Power but it eventually evolved into Gay Pride.
One year after the 1969 Stonewall uprising tore down the notion that gay people were second-class citizens, queer activists marched to commemorate the event. The joyous nature of the various LGBTQ+ festivities that circle the globe stand in stark contrast to the riots that gave birth to Pride as we know it. Association of Prides, deHarte intimately understands the significance of the event and helps to root its legacy in the landscape of Palm Springs. “It celebrates diversity, inclusivity and creates a platform for individuals and organizations to share and raise awareness of issues that are important to them.” That is a quote from Ron deHarte, CEO of Greater Palm Springs Pride. We are meant to be heard and we are louder together. Our individual voice is powerful, to be sure, but it gathers even more veneration when it harmonizes with those around us. The human larynx organizes a complex array of vocal chords into a symphony of sound, transforming the air we breathe into vital, celebratory audio.
Every time we speak, laugh or sing, the body requires coordination.
