4th June 2024
What does it look like when the woke snake starts eating its own tail? This weekend in Philadelphia may have offered up a glimpse..
Pro-Palestine protestors clashed with a Pride Parade in the city’s “Gayborhood” area on Sunday. And to think, it’s only 3 days into “Pride Month”.
In a video shared online, Pride participants in leather and lace were stopped by pro-Palestinian LGBTQ+ members, some wearing keffiyehs, who disrupted the parade to confront fellow community members, as the Daily Mail detailed.
The protest, led by Queers4Palestine, highlighted the perceived parallels between Palestinian oppression and historical prejudice against LGBTQ+ people.
During the disrupted Philadelphia parade, they chanted “The more you try to silence us, the louder we will be!” along with “From the River to the Sea.”
