Dear John,

Happy Pride Month!

Queer liberation demands not only civil rights, but peace, racial justice, economic justice, and environmental justice as well. This month, we’re carrying forward the political tradition of Pride by building collective power to demand an end to poverty, racism, militarism, and ecological destruction!

Join us alongside the Gay and Lesbian Activists Alliance (GLAA) and DC Poor People’s Campaign in this year’s Capital Pride March on Saturday, June 12th as we celebrate, demand change, and spread the word about the Mass Poor People’s Assembly and Moral March on Washington the following weekend! If you haven’t signed up yet to be part of the anti-militarism contingent, sign up here.

On Monday, June 6th at 5:30PM, join us for a happy hour at Trade to celebrate Pride, meet other organizers, and make signs for the march on Saturday! RSVP here.

On Saturday, June 12th, we’ll be lining up with DC PPC and GLAA between 11:00am and 2:30pm before the parade begins. Respond here to receive the latest information once our staging location is confirmed.

We’re gearing up for the Poor People’s Assembly on June 18th and a weekend of events!  Click here for more details. If you haven’t signed up yet to be part of the anti-militarism contingent, sign up here.

Hope to see you!

With pride in peace,

Tim, Olivia, and the CODEPINK DC Team
