"We are many communities, one movement"




"We are many communities, one movement" Olga Talamante told the 14th annual Pride Brunch honoring the 2012 SF LGBT Pride Parade's Grand Marshals. The event benefited the Positive Resource Center. Global Grand Marshal Bishop Christopher Senyonjo received a standing ovation before and after his remarks (shown above). 


"We are all connected," the retired Ugandan bishop said. Pointing to the recent revival of a bill that imposes a death penalty on Ugandan LGBT people, Bishop Christopher urged people to respect the rights of every individual.

"Coming here has given me hope," he continued, adding San Francisco is a city where diversity is welcomed and celebrated. "Now we have hope," he added.
