At Brooklyn Pride 2013

JMG reader Phillip Davis writes:

My first NYC Gay Parade was the 10 year anniversary of Stonewall. Today, for the first time in my 35 years in NY, I went to the Brooklyn Pride Parade. It reminded me of the earlier NYC events, more intimate and local and less commercial. It was very much a community event, but the Brooklyn community celebrating all of its diversity, not just a gay subset of the Brooklyn community celebrating itself.
