NBC 7 s Priya Sridhar has the latest details on Pride Weekend which just kicked off.
Festival goers said Pride is an important time to reflect on how much progress has been made for LGTBQ rights, and to look toward the future.
“I think it’s still important because people don t realize how California is used to having all the freedom and rights, but in most of the country it’s not that way, so I think it’s important to stand in unity of each other and declare that we are a force to be reckoned with basically,” Ron Alsop said.
