Queering "Pride" Fest in June 2003

Let's show Pittsburgh that we're Queer as Fuck, not "Queer as Folk." For the first time in Pittsburgh, Gay Shame will converge upon Pridefest. Ironically, this year's theme is "Peace through Pride", yet they won't be embracing our struggles of imperialism, the wars, racism, classism, or the many other objects of our oppression.

Call 412-363-1877 or email pinkbloc@cease.info to represent.
