Keep shining
Since 1970, New York City has celebrated LGBTQIA+ pride with a parade, public speeches and rallies, and record-setting crowds—officials estimate the 2019 NYC Pride March drew in 5 million people. This photo shows the LED display casting rainbow-hued light across the upper levels of Manhattan's iconic Empire State Building to celebrate 2014's Pride Week.
Pride celebrations will be a little more subdued this year, with social gatherings limited due to the coronavirus outbreak. Events that would normally fill public spaces with friends and families out to join in the fun have largely been canceled. But that doesn't mean you can't participate virtually. How will you safely celebrate Pride this year?
