TRANS GROUP TO LEAD NYC GAY PRIDE PARADE 6/28/2009

Trans people & their supporters will be in the first contingent of NYC's Gay Pride Parade on Sunday, 6/28/2009. Gathering on 56th St. between 5th Ave & Madison, "The Sons & Daughters of Sylvia Rivera" will celebrate the "mother" of the transgender liberation movement - Sylvia Rivera. Vanessa Edwards is urging others to arrive early since they step off at 11:00 am. Trans people may also want to visit 'Sylvia Rivera Way" at the corner of Hudson &* Christopher Streets where the parade actually ends, To reach that corner during the parade itself, it will be necessary to go down 10th Street to Hudson & then south to Christopher because of the huge crowds along Christopher Street.

The stars of several Broadway Shows were mingling with the guests. I went with my video camera & asked numerous people if I could "interview them for YouTube". These were the interesting and amusing interviews I obtained.
