Washington DC’s pride parade was halted near the intersection of 15th and P St NW on June 10 when protesters chanting “no justice, no pride” blocked a police cruiser and officers from continuing on with the march.
“There can be no pride for some of us without liberation for all of us,” the group’s website said. In addition to protesting police brutality, the demonstrators protested “systems of oppression” and the pride organizers’ “deeply problematic corporate sponsors”.
Reports said the parade was rerouted to 16th St and continued.
