Before the NYC Pride Parade began, we spent thirty minutes in front of St. Patrick’s in witness. We have done this continuously since 1987. What a great opportunity to let people know us. Many of us had wonderful conversations with people from all over the world.
Below is a link to the New York Daily News photo slide they call "some of the best parade moments over the years." Dignity/New York is featured in a 1986 Witness at the Cathedral. (Photo 16/27)
New York Daily News: New York City's gay pride parades throughout the years, August 14, 2017
Gay Roman Catholics from Dignity, a community of lesbian and gay Roman Catholics based in New York, demonstrate outside New York's St. Patrick's Cathedral during the Gay-Lesbian Pride Day Parade on June 29, 1986. A federal appeals court the following week had urged police to drop their fight against the demonstration, saying the city was 'litigating trivia.' (Rick Maiman/Ap) photo 16 / 27
