Description | About a year ago, I attended Pride here in Racine. I was really looking forward to it — to gathering with our community in celebration of how far LGBTQ+ rights have come and talking about the work we have ahead of us.
I showed up in a T-shirt and sneakers, ready to talk about an LGBTQ+ rights bill that I had recently authored. The Pride flag was flying over City Hall for the first time. There were people I knew and many people I didn’t, all wearing bright colors, holding kids’ hands and bearing beautiful signs.
But there were people there I hadn’t anticipated. They were holding big posters saying LGBTQ+ people were going to hell. They were yelling, trying to drown out the Pride speakers. |
