Photo Essay: Three decades of Pride

Posted by Editor | Jun 13, 2016 |

Milwaukee Pride, Inc. has its roots in the Milwaukee Lesbian and Gay Pride Committee, which formed in 1987 to host the city’s very first pride picnic. The organization has worked to help educate the public on how to be tolerant of different lifestyles. United States Senator Tammy Baldwin was keynote speaker at the 2016 festival kick-off. Baldwin is the first openly gay Senator in US history.

This photo essay features moments from the opening day of PrideFest, where people of all lifestyles came together to celebrate diversity in public for the 30th year.
