It was the bi-centennial year when I photographed the 7th Annual Gay Pride Parade in 1976 for a documentary photography class at University of Illinois at Chicago. Thank you to Windy City Times and Kirk Williamson for including my photo on the cover and on page 20, and to Scott Cramer for the recommendation. Happy Pride!
The June 24 issue of Windy City Times is online, in news boxes and in open locations around Chicago and suburbs. This issue looks back at Pride celebrations of the past and this month’s Drag March for Change. We look at the healthcare rollback through the eyes of a local trans man, LGBTQI refugees who seek asylum in nearby countries and we talk with downstate activist Buff Carmichael about his late husband and the 1996-2008 Prairie Flame newspaper.
In entertainment look for Pride week theater, a podcast on the Mattachine Society, a talk with the 'Love, Victor’ showrunner, a Marvel trans star and Laverne Cox and Sam Feder discussing trans documentary ‘Disclosure.'
