Ms. P was simply that girl. ✨ Here she reflects on how the first August Monday parade came to be in 1954. That year, she took home the first place prize for her troupe “Quo Vadis” and her plait pole group won the annual competition.

For our LGBTQ+ friends, showing up as their true selves in a community that still hasn’t created much space for them, is an act of resistance and self-love. If someone in your life has found the strength to live authentically, honor that. Stand beside them, always. ❤️
