World Pride Day: From Start To Finish
Stonewall: Where It All Began
When The Trevor Project
Serves Stonewall REALNESS
In Front Of The ACTUAL Stonewall Inn
50 years ago on THIS very spot, the police were raiding
Stonewall and arresting us. Today they’re protecting us
so we can ALL celebrate peacefully. THANK YOU NYPD!
We’ve all come a long way.
I learned that “tocayo” is espaƱol for “two people
with the same name”. Say hello to my new friend Christian!

I spent the day in front of The Stonewall where I watched the NYC Gay Pride Parade sail by me. I shook hands with, hugged and kissed more people (both in the parade and the crowd) than I ever knew I would. I told as many people as I could that they were beautiful and I wished them love and happiness. They ALL responded in kind. Afterwards I walked 50 blocks draped in a Pride flag receiving winks, hugs and high fives from other celebrants. I am so grateful to live in a time and a place where all of this is possible. I am proud to be a member of a community that includes ALL races, religions and genders. The older I get the greater my capacity to love (and receive love) grows. The older I get the more I realize how blessed I am in every way. Later I stood on a platform, watching a glorious sunset, dancing and fully engaged in the joy around me as I waited for Madonna to perform. This city gave me a birthplace, my family, many friends, my art education and my career. It also gave me my OTHER family. What a time to be alive!
I AM 500% HERE FOR MADONNA!
Madonna's performance began with a succession
of Madame X "spy" clones going through a series
of movements until Madonna herself emerged.
THANK YOU MADONNA!
Madonna's show closed with fireworks
and as I made my way back down to 42nd
Street to pick up my car, I saw The H&M
Building lit up for pride as if to say "goodnight".
Okay, Pride 2019: That's a wrap!
