All across the nation, millions of people are celebrating LGBT pride.
From New York City to San Francisco, hundreds of pride parades and marches are taking place as a way for the LGBT community and allies to band together in unity. From celebrity guests, like Sir Ian McKellen in New York City, to a variety of audacious performers, these parades and marches are an amazing sight to behold.
