The 20 th July, 2019, was a specially colorful and a sunny afternoon of “Fiesta” in Montpellier, with the occasion of the 26 th Gay Pride that brought for this new edition the slogan: “Marche des Diversités: mettons la haine hors du combat” , where hundreds of members from the LGBTQI+ community as well as heterosexual people gathered together to commemorate the 50 th anniversary of the Stonewall riots, where pride began, the violent clash that kicked off the gay rights movement in New York City in 1969. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0Jk0sIoSY1/ As every year of pride in Montpellier since 1994 this new edition was the occasion to celebrate the courageous group of homosexual people as Marsha P.
