With an extra pep in their step, participants at the 19th annual Dyke March gathered at Bryant Park yesterday "in celebration of LBTQ women and to protest against ongoing discrimination, harassment, and anti-LBTQ violence in schools, on the job, in our families, and on the streets." It must have been popular, because their website's severs appear to not have been able to handle the crush of clicks! Though billed as a protest, there are plenty of smiles on faces in the crowd.
