RECAP: America's Pride in San Diego | Detailing the Poppin' of my Pride Cherry
July 24, 2012
The San Diego LGBT Pride Festival made history as it drew a record of nearly 200,000 people to Hillcrest and Balboa Park for a weekend marked by monumental movements towards our government’s acceptance of the equality of its citizens, no matter the sexual orientation. In doing so, the celebration lived up to its chosen theme – America’s Pride. It did so on its own terms, without pretense and without problems, and for a first timer, the festival was all I could ask for – good vibes, kind people, music, food, and fun in an accepting and glorious setting. And although it was my first experience at Pride, the event consisted of a series of firsts for all participants and organizers alike. While we at SanDiegoVille.com greatly appreciate the direct progress made by the LGBT community and are thankful for the enjoyable experience, I’m taking cue from the weekend and staying true to me in this recap article, and you all can take from it what you wish.
