The National Pride March, also known as the Equality March for Unity and Pride[1] and LGBT Resist March,[2][3][4] occurred on June 11, 2017, in conjunction with Washington, D.C.'s annual pride parade, Capital Pride. The event was organized by New York gay activist David Bruinooge.[5] By late January 2017, more than 50,000 people had expressed interest in attending the event on its Facebook page.[6] The march also commemorated the 49 victims of the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting.[7]
Thousands gathered for the march in Washington, D.C., which went past the White House and on toward the U.S. Capitol.[8]
