“This is the same board that says it is unfair to encourage floats to support trans rights as that would be an ‘imposition,’ but is now demanding to control the social media of organisations who march in the parade." - Pride in Protest spokesperson Evan van Zijl

I am just reading that Sydney Mardi Gras CEO Jesse Matheson has expelled Pride in Protest from the parade.
The issue stems from the group criticising another group for not being anti-genocide. They Pride in Protest claims the other group is actually pro-genocide.
This apparently all popped off late yesterday.
Just another reason for me to not want to participate or celebrate Mardi Gras.

Identifying as LGBTQIA+ often comes with deep questions about your own identity. Buddhist practices offer practical tools to support finding answers to those questions.

Yesterday I marched again in the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras parade with Trans Pride Australia and then went to the Dykes on Bikes Sydney after party.

In these times, when hatred seems to be on the rise, what could be more precious than gathering together with people from across the religious divides to celebrate the universal power of love.
Gently reflect on the universal power of the love to find the courage to love and be loved in all its manifestations.
An interfaith evening of open discussion, stories, poetry and music.https://registration.rigpa.org.au/civicrm/event/info?id=1229&reset=1

Take a little time to gently reflect on the universal power of the love in your own heart to find the courage to love and be loved in all its manifestations.
An interfaith evening of open discussion, stories, poetry and music, as part of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.Speakers include:
Nur Warsame: Warsame was born in Somalia and moved to Australia as a high school student. In 2010 he came out as Australia’s first gay imam. He is a hafiz, ie one who has memorised the Quran. Since 2014 he has run an LGBT support group Marhava (which means welcome in Arabic).Hugo Ditroia: Hugo is an active member of Acceptance Sydney a LGBTQIA+ Catholic community, based at St Joseph’s Parish in Newtown. In 2020, Hugo completed his Bachelor of Theology and Philosophy, with majors in New Testament and Spirituality. His passion for Church history, theology, scripture, and spirituality—particularly in the context of identity—drives his ongoing journey of study and exploration. Over the past few years, Hugo has focused his research on how scripture, theology, and spirituality intersect with the experiences of marginalized communities, in particular the LGBTQIA+ community.

I am livid that the NSW police are being allowed to march in the Mardi Gras parade after everything that's happened. Grow a spine, organisers.

This time tomorrow a friend and I will be checking into our accommodation for the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade.
We're marching with Trans Pride Australia. We're float number 5 this year, so shouldn't be a chore to spot us!
Among the things that TPA runs is Friday Night Social, a weekly video chat with participants from across Australia. It's overseen & hosted by blahaj zone's admins @ada & @supakaity . I'm also a regular host, and some of our BZ🦈 community are regular participants.
The parade is being televised in Australia on ABCTV and ABC iview (you can watch from overseas through a IPTV service or use a VPN to access iview). The coverage starts at 7:30pm AEDT [Saturday 8:30am London, 12:30am San Fran, 3:30am NYC].
Go to https://iview.abc.net.au/ to watch the Sydney Gay And Lesbian Mardi Gras 2024 in iview (you'll need to register).

And before you knew it, the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras board had reversed the decision to disallow cops to march. The amount of 🥾👅 white queers, trans, & allies outraged online at their exclusion has been thoroughly demoralising.
I'm torn about my own participation this Saturday. I have been looking forward to marching with Trans Pride Australia before I move away from Sydney this year. And frankly the numbers of trans folk who seemingly have little to no commitment to intersectional justice is staggeringly disturbing.
I'm so angry with the cashed up & middle class queer that are simping for the actors of state violence.

Australia's current Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, just became the first Australian Prime Minister to march in the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.
He marched with Rainbow Labor NSW, which is an advocacy group within the Labor party for LGBT equality.
Albanese has been marching at Mardi Gras since 1983 (today was the 35th time that he's marched with Mardi Gras), but it is the first time that he has ever done so as Prime Minister.

The #SydneyMardiGras Party is going off! #SydneyWorldPride
-
2/2 Everyone is welcome at #SydneyMardiGras and #SydneyWorldPride, including some beautiful people considered conventionally attractive by society. While your social streams and news may predominantly feature these people, presumably in speedos, please know and understand they truly are the minority. Sure, you may see images of hundreds or even thousands of them together. Still, they represent only a handful of the over half a million diverse people celebrating, all equally loved and welcomed.

For those wondering, I’ll watch the Parade at home and then walk to the Party. I don’t have the energy to do the Parade and a 10-hour all-night dance party with over 10,000 people. #SydneyMardiGras #SydneyWorldPride

Happy #SydneyMardiGras! Tonight is the official Parade and Party and the biggest night of #SydneyWorldPride.
(I made this GIF from a video I took of the opening show at the 2016 Party, celebrating decades of Aussie drag legends, including Courtney Act.)

Today’s the official start of #SydneyWorldPride. Wishing everyone two weeks of joy and celebration.
We are grateful to the wonderful champions of interfaith dialogue and inclusivity who will be joining us next Thursday representing Hindu, Jewish, Catholic and other Christian faiths.
