More than 300 people marched and rallied in Austin on Saturday to commemorate the first Harvey Milk Day, according to Dallas activist Chastity Kirven, who attended the event and sent over the above photo. Kirven was also among the presenters at a pre-march conference organized by Equality Across America. I’ve swiped a few more pics of the march from Facebook and posted them after the jump. The Austin event was one of dozens across the country honoring Milk, a one-time Dallas resident who would’ve turned 80 Saturday. At Equality California’s Milk Day event in San Francisco, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi assured attendees that “don’t ask don’t tell” will be “a memory come Christmas.” Watch video of Pelosi’s speech below.
Horrah!
What about photo credits? Ahem….
All are welcome to San Francisco. Here is the event for all age and aged people https://tinyurl.com/2wjepgc.
