“In so many ways, our country is divided, and our communities can be divided,” Ali says. According to this year’s Pride coordinator Abdul Ali-a local poet, cultural worker, and community advocate-it’s a message that stresses the importance of love and acceptance of all members and their allies. The theme for the year’s festivities is “One Love, One Heart, One Pride,” recognizing togetherness within a diverse community. The events range from adults-only bar crawls to family-friendly street festivals, all leading up to the annual High-Heel Race, Pride Parade, and Block Party in Central Baltimore on Saturday, June 24 and the Pride in the Park bash at Druid Hill Park on Sunday, June 25. After a record-breaking turnout for last June’s Pride events in Baltimore, the Pride Center of Maryland is going all out once again with a lineup of passionate performances and powerful exhibits celebrating the LGBTQ+ community all month long.
