Flying the blue, pink and white flag, chanting and cheering, members of the Bay Area LGBTQ+ community and their supporters will march Saturday protesting anti-drag, anti-trans legislation nationwide.
The"Drag Up! Fight Back!" rally and march is planned to begin at 11 a.m. at San Francisco City Hall, ending up at Union Square for performances and a drag story hour.
Anti-trans legislation is making rounds across the U.S. In just this year, legislators in 33 states introduced over 300 bills that put trans rights at risk, such as banning gender-affirming care. Juster, a straight white woman who describes herself as an ally, said it's important for allies to show their support for LGBTQ+ people.The day before the demonstration, organizers posted on Facebook,"Let's do this San Francisco style. Feel free to express yourself in your most authentic way. Drag is encouraged but not required. Make signs. Wear comfortable shoes. Make some noise and be joyous! Let's show the world who we are.
Appearing in film and TV, Heklina, whose legal name was Stefan Grygelko, also opened Oasis Nightclub in San Francisco.The protest is organized by The People's March, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence and the San Francisco Democratic Party.
