Harlem Pride 2021 New York

Info

Covid-19
Unfortunately, Harlem Pride has been postponed due to circumstances of Covid-19, and will be an online event this year

Harlem Pride takes place from the 25th to the 27th June 2021.

Our theme for our Virtual Harlem Pride 2021 is STRONGER WITH PRIDE!
Our community continues to be resilient as we’ve had to press through our usual challenges along with those brought on by COVID-19, . However, as a community, we’ve shown that our lives matter, that we can be civically engaged and be a catalyst for change in our government, and that through it all, we are Stronger With Pride. As we move into our second virtual pride, Harlem Pride is happy to bring you enriching, engaging, and entertaining programming as we celebrate life, love, and PRIDE!

We adopted the use of “Same-gender-loving”, or “SGL” to be inclusive of the identities of members of our Harlem community. It is a term coined for African American use by activist Cleo Manago, and is a description for homosexuals and bisexuals, particularly in the African American community. It emerged in the early 1990s as a culturally affirming African American homosexual/bisexual identity.
