Gay Pride Fest NYC 6-28-09 Part 2

I took these photos at the 2009 Gay Pride parade and street festival in New York City. The event was held on June 28th, about seventh months after the Proposition 8 vote in California and five months after the Obama inauguration. During the summer of 2009, New York governor David Patterson and the state legislature were pushing for a same sex marriage legalization bill; however, the bill failed in a Senate vote in December of that year. This is the second part of a series.
