Pride has been celebrated in cities around the globe with parades - that have gotten bigger and bigger - during the month of June.
The coronavirus pandemic brought those plans to a halt last year.
Last spring, the group behind the Chicago Pride Parade, one of the country s largest annual Pride celebrations, canceled its in-person march for the first time in a half-century.
This year, PRIDEChicago announced the parade will be rescheduled from its traditional last Sunday in June to Sunday, Oct. 3.
Other groups in large cities are also playing it safe in June - returing with a mix of in-person and virtual events. ....

Holly Duchmann, who lives in Lafayette, Louisiana, plans to attend a Pride celebration for the first time this year. 
“In the years before the pandemic, while I was out to my friends, I was still really scared to go to Pride,” Duchmann, 27, said. “Because I’m bisexual, I kind of pass as straight a lot, and so that kind of created anxiety with me for years, making me feel like I didn t really belong in the LGBT community.”
She felt more accepted after finding queer community through her roller derby team, and in 2020, she was looking forward to going to her first Pride event. She even picked up pieces of “extravagant” clothing here and there to wear. But then everything was canceled because of the pandemic, and, during quarantine, she turned to TikTok to feel connected to other LGBTQ people. ....

Ah, summer in San Francisco. When the temps drop, the fog rolls in, and everyone busts out their warmest puffy. But just because we’re wearing ski jackets when the rest of the country is in shorts and t-shirts doesn’t mean we’re gonna have any less fun. Especially now that California is (tentatively) scheduled to reopen on June 15th (as long as we can keep our COVID numbers down, so get vaccinated and wear your masks!). Sure, summer 2021 isn’t going to look exactly like 2019 there’s a bunch of stuff that’s not going to happen or has been postponed, like Burning Man (coming back in 2022 for better or for worse) and Outside Lands, which has moved to Halloween weekend (which is probably a good thing since the weather will be much more likely to cooperate). Still, this summer is also not going to look anything like 2020, thank goodness (and Dr. Fauci). So ....
