More than 75% percent of all marching groups are nonprofit organizations, and more than half of all marching groups are participating free-of-charge.Organizers selected the theme to highlight the importance of the NYC Pride March as the intersection for Queer liberation and joy. "This year's theme is an imperative and a call to action. While we reflect on past triumphs and challenges, we must also empower our community to continue to ignite change and unite against the forces that do not want us to exist. Unity at this time is critical to our survival. Our theme calls us all to action," said Kazz Alexander, NYC Pride co-chair."The more that we do these shows, the more I realize that I'm reaching an audience who is not having their needs met.
That event marked an act of defiance from the year before, a 1969 uprising at New York City's Stonewall Inn. After a police raid at the gay bar, a crowd partly led by trans women of color channeled their anger to confront authorities. It was a catalyst to what became a global movement for LGBTQIA+ rights.
