Zohran Mamdani Received With Wild Applause As He Marches In NYC Pride While Waving Trans Flag [VIDEO]

The New York Times reports:

Millions of people gathered on Sunday for the New York City Pride March, packing the streets of Manhattan for a celebration amid the most hostile political environment for L.G.B.T.Q. Americans in decades. Pride celebrations have always been equal parts party and protest, and those who planned to march on Sunday said that filling the streets with rainbow flags and colorful floats was now more important than ever as the rights of L.G.B.T.Q. people come under increasing attack.

The New York march is the largest of its kind in the United States, with 75,000 participants and roughly two million spectators, according to organizers. It is also broadcast on network television, a testament to how much public support for L.G.B.T.Q. people has grown over a generation. But backlash against L.G.B.T.Q. rights has increased since same-sex marriage became legal nationwide almost exactly 10 years ago. The fallout has mainly, though not solely, affected transgender people.
