Highlights from DIVA: San Francisco Pride Parade (Part 1)

Posted by Jessica Williams on Wednesday, June 20, 2012

This weekend is the annual San Francisco Pride Celebration and Parade in support of the GLBT community.  The theme for the San Francisco Pride Celebration and Parade this year is global equality and features over 200 parade contingents, 300 exhibitors, and 20 community organizations. Parade participants follow a route through downtown San Francisco, from the intersection of Market and Beale Streets to Market and 8th Streets.

Check out this KQED News report on the San Francisco Gay Freedom Parade from the 1970s, featuring participants marching in the parade and crowds formed in front of Civic Center. The KQED News report is part of the San Francisco Bay Area Television Archive on DIVA.
