New York, New York 10014

The march will assemble tonight at 8:30 PM at the corner of West 25th St. & 9th Avenue in Manhattan and will march to the Stonewall Inn on Christopher Street in the West Village.

For the last 40 years the LGBTQ community have been the victims of hate crimes, bullying, and inequality. Recently, there has been a influx of reported hate crimes, bias bullying, suicides, and murders where the victims have been LGBTQ. When is enough?

When elected officials and government give Americans the impression that the LGBTQ community are unworthy of equality, dignity, and human rights, Americans believe it.

Our community MUST come out to support, stregthen, and fight for one another. This march is to stand up for our rights and to show that we are not less than. We deserve to be treated with respect and equally. We will not be bullied, we will not be assaulted any longer. We will take back the night. Let's march and show our strength.

Once at The Stonewall Inn, we will unite and show these haters another "Stonewall Uprising"
