Pgh Pride
TransPride Pgh and Pgh Transgender has invited us to march with them on the 11th... there will be a vehicle and a marching contingent behind.
We do not have march placements yet, but please check back on our facebook page for more information. Line Up is at 11am. Look for the Gender Diversity truck!

June 11th
Directly after the March and open to all who wish to join is
The Peoples March.
1pm- Grayhound station
We recognize the history of Pride as an act of resistance and therefore we will march to bring attention to and hold Delta accountable for its historical exploitation and negligence towards our black and brown and trans people. 

The People’s Pride march is scheduled for Sunday, June 11th at 1:00 PM. We will meet at the Greyhound Station on Liberty and 11th, directly after the EQT Equality March, and March down Liberty Avenue. This time and place was selected in order to bring attention to, but not conflict with, other events in the area. 

Delta Foundation of Pittsburgh sold naming rights for this year’s Pride Parade to EQT Corporation , a conglomeration of fracking companies across PA which pollute our land, water, and people. Fracking and environmental pollution disproportionately affects marginalized communities and we can’t stand by as Delta hosts extravagant parties with fracking money. The EQT Equality March is receiving a lot of crticism from not just queer people.
