The response of the greater community was swift and decisive. The Cleveland LGBT Community Center, along with 18 other groups and organizations, put together their own march and festival in two weeks’ time. In fact, for the first time in more than 20 years the event was called a “march” and not a parade.
The focus was on responding to the bloody hate crime at the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando Fla., with pride and determination, and to continue the fight for full civil rights for everyone in the LGBTQ movement. There were no shopping or FBI recruitment booths this year. There was dancing, laughing and local musicians. Of course, the organizers made nice with the Cleveland Police Department, but many participants knew that we must organize ourselves to defend ourselves and our interests.
