The Society Against Sexual Orientation Discrimination (SASOD) has launched virtual pride events set to take place over a three-week period in celebration of Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer (LGBTQ) pride.
The “592 Virtual Pride” was launched last Wednesday and is expected to conclude on July 7th with 15 events set to be hosted virtually, inclusive of a church service, a film night and even the pride parade.
According to the Managing Director of SASOD Joel Simpson, the virtual pride celebrations were planned to serve as means to still celebrate pride even with the current restrictions in place due to COVID-19. The virtual celebrations also come on the heels of celebrations of SASOD’s 17th anniversary, which occurred earlier in June.
