Absolutely incredible turnout for Budapest Pride! So proud of all the organizers, including some old friends, who estimate hundreds of thousands— major embarrassment to Orban

As a co-founder of the Lesbian Avengers and the original Dyke March - I am so proud, 33 years later, as thousands march in NYC behind a “Dykes Say No To Fascism” banner, in support of Palestinian Liberation, with no corporate sponsorship. Still organic. Still ahead. Still holding a freedom vision.
