Gay Pride moves eastwards to the Paris suburbs to better reflect LGBTQI reality
Marche des Fiertés or LGBT Pride March, won’t have the usual podiums and floats because of the ongoing health crisis but it will have "our anger, determination and voices,” Inter-LGBT, the umbrella group of 50 LGBT organisations in France organising the event, announced on social media.The first pride march was held in France in 1981 and for this 40th anniversary it’s ringing in the changes, beginning in the more working-class, ethnically mixed town of Pantin, in the east of Paris.It's a way for the organisation to remain closer to the daily reality of the LGBTQI community.
