Chelsea Manning Contingent - St. Pete Pride 2015 More on Facebook
We wanted to say thank you to each person who came
out and marched with us in support of Chelsea Manning at St. Pete
Pride. We would like to especially thank the Tampa Light Brigade for
bringing out the lights, which added such a special component to the
contingent. We were awed by the beautiful people in our contingent and
were honored to march with all of you.
We have been inspired by Chelsea (formerly Bradley)
Manning and her courageous efforts to uncover and stop human rights
abuses and atrocities in Iraq and Afghanistan. Actions which have led
her to pay the ultimate price in years of imprisonment, of which has
included solitary confinement. Her name and her story is one that every
LGBTQ person should know. Here are some photos of the Chelsea Manning Contingent at St. Pete Pride 2015:
