We are saddened by acts such as this, our symbols of Pride are symbols of love and acceptance, anyone that doubts this needs only to attend our event and see with their own eyes the immense amount of love in our community.

So great to see everybody at Pride yesterday ! Here's a little history for you ... from Spokane Pride

In June of 1992, Marion Hammer, Helen Bonser, and a group of folks called PFLAG, or the Parents and Families of Le****ns and G**s, decided it was time to gather the Spokane community in Pride and walk the streets of downtown Spokane. They understood our LGBTQ+ community needed the opportunity to be seen, valued, and heard in a BIG way. We know their work would carry us through today; where we now celebrate 30 years of Pride in Spokane this June.
30 years of a fight for the rights of LGBTQ+ people.
30 years of the need for the visibility of our community.
30 years of believing the stories of people who have been targeted because of their identities.
30 years of work for the inclusion and belonging of all people
30 years of Pride.
Spokane, we are so of you.
So, this June, while you may see a big party. We encourage you to look deeper and see pathways for people to have the opportunity to be fully valued and fully present. We encourage you to join us in the movement of reimagining who we can be and who we want to be - together.
