The March lends visibility to the voices and struggles of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community, and is a commemoration of the Stonewall Riots of June 1969 in New York, USA, that ignited the fight for civil rights by and for LGBT people the world over. In India, the pride marches first began in Kolkata ten years ago, and in recent years have been conducted in Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru. This year, pride marches will be held for the first time in Chennai and Bhubaneswar. These marches are the combined effort of individuals from the LGBT communities, straight allies, and organizations supportive of the cause. A remarkable feature is that they will include families, friends of the LGBT community, and anyone who believes in human rights. The theme of Chennai’s Rainbow Pride march draws on the immortal words of Tamil Poet Bharathiar , வண்ணங்கள வேற்றுமைப்பட்டால், அதில் மானுடர் வேற்றுமையில்லை: Hues may vary but humanity does not! The march will focus on the essential humanity of all, despite differences in sexuality and gender identity.
