caption_attribution_description: video Dear Sasha, I have really enjoyed your photographs of the Gay Pride march. It very much reminded me of the time Ed and I went to watch it, gay rights have come so far in recent years but unfortunately the USA is lagging behind England, we now have full protection of the law against discrimination in employment and service provision and we can marry. Me and Ed have been together for 27 years and we married in 2006 as soon as it became legal. Whilst I was looking for your photographs I saw one entitled " Morning in a city ", it is beautiful, I love New York and this picture is just such a wonderful portrayal of both the model and the city buildings. You have a wonderful talent. Love, Peter.
context_page_description: New York City Pride March is an event celebrating the LGBTQ community; it is one of the largest annual Pride marches in the world, attracting tens of thousands of participants and millions of sidewalk spectators each June. The route of the Pride march through Lower Manhattan traverses south on Fifth Avenue, through Greenwich Village, passing the Stonewall National Monument, site of the June 1969 riots that launched the modern movement for LGBTQ+ rights. The March is among the largest components of NYC Pride, together with the Rally, PrideFest, and Pride Island events. The largest NYC Pride March to date coincided with the Stonewall 50 – WorldPride NYC 2019 festivities, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the riots at the Stonewall Inn, with 150,000 participants and five million visitors to Manhattan on Pride weekend; an estimated four million attended the parade.
