NYC Lesbians Unite Rally UN Dag Hammarskjold Plaza organized by Outright International
D.J. Lehrhaupt for Outright International
On March 14, queer activists gathered at Dag Hammarskjold Plaza in NYC to reclaim a powerful legacy — the iconic "Lesbian Tent."
First created nearly 30 years ago at the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, the Tent is considered a "physical representation of [the] demand for visibility, equality, and justice on the global stage." As governments worldwide continue to attack LGBTQ+ rights, those demands are just as important as ever.
This explicitly inclusive demonstration organized by Outright International and the LBTI Caucus echoed the demands of past generations while looking towards the future.
Keep scrolling for images of resilience, solidarity, and joy, all of which serve as a reminder to the world that LGBTQ+ rights are non-negotiable.
