The Alan Turing statue looks on
Manchester came together last night in Sackville Gardens to mourn the dead killed in a homophobic attack in Orlando, and to unite in love. There were moving speeches from the Mayor, Council, LGBT Foundation and others, a candlelit vigil and readings, poetry, plus songs from the Manchester Lesbian and Gay Chorus.
Celebrating the diversity of Manchester, especially its LGBTQI communities and their friends and families, with a range of people of all ages, genders, backgrounds. races and religions and standing strong. It was a huge turnout and as was the case in many other places around the world last night, we all stood together.

Hello, it is nice to see so many people coming together. My thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families in Orlando. Happy Tuesday, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThat is a fitting way to come together. On Sunday here there was a vigil.
