Pride for me is about when I usually<br />
go home or to Stockholm and I’m in<br />
different Pride situations. Pride is a<br />
celebration, a time to meet your friends<br />
and be surrounded by all these amazing<br />
queer people and Pride is also political.<br />
We are still lacking so behind especially<br />
now <strong>with</strong> a lot of Trans rights being<br />
taken away in both the UK, USA, Poland<br />
and so on. Especially now <strong>with</strong> Black<br />
Lives Matter and Trans lives, it’s going<br />
back to the riots at Stonewall. It’s going<br />
back to its original meaning and not<br />
about companies using it as marketing<br />
tools. For Pride this year I was at a Trans<br />
Lives Matter protest in London and it<br />
was very beautiful, very powerful being<br />
surrounded by everyone. Everyone was<br />
dressed in flowers and had flowers <strong>with</strong><br />
the Pride flags. It was beautiful to see<br />
the power of our community showing<br />
what we want and pushing for it. Black<br />
trans women have always been seen as<br />
something less and something erased<br />
from history and even <strong>with</strong>in the queer<br />
community. Some people don’t know that<br />
it is because of Marsha P. Johnson and all<br />
of the trans women that started the riots<br />
we would not have the same rights and<br />
privileges today.<br />
