A Proud Celebration of Rainbows: Embracing World Pride in Sydney

<p>During the past few weeks, I have felt really proud to be a Sydneysider.</p> <p>Our city has been awash in rainbows and it was wonderful to see churches, cafes, government buildings and street corners decked out in rainbow colours and getting into the spirit of things. The celebrations came to a head last Sunday, when in a historic event, 50,000 Sydneysiders and visitors dressed in rainbow colours, marched across the Harbour Bridge to make a global statement for equality. It was a stunning morning; the vibe was electric and we were excited to be a part of it. For the LGBTQIA+ community who have felt marginalised, it was a powerful statement of acceptance and inclusion. It was a chance to come together as a community to challenge societal norms and the religious and societal prejudices of our times in a show of unity that honoured the desire of everyone to live their truth.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/ecovillage-journeys/a-proud-celebration-of-rainbows-embracing-world-pride-in-sydney-f205bb6e4989"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
