Portland, Oregon: Corporate Pride, No! Radical Pride, Yes!

In response to the “official” Pride parade being co-opted by corporations trying to pinkwash themselves, queer workers and oppressed peoples in Portland, Oregon, held an annual Rad Pride event on June 29.

Workers World Party tabled at the event, along with countless other radically progressive organizations. Queer liberation lies within the people, not rainbow- colored banks and insurance companies.
