Florida officials ordered that a rainbow crosswalk in Orlando, FL—part of the Pulse nightclub shooting memorial—be painted over. What a cruel and pointless act.
In response, the community got together to hold a protest and remake the crosswalk. One of the organizers stated: “We’re sick of the fascism that is trying to destroy our LGBTQ+ community ... This is a very sacred site … we said, ‘No, we’re not going to let that happen!'”
