The Pink Settee Whispers about Gay Pride In West Hollywood

                Hello my Little Doves! Iona Uradreams here from My Pink Settee. It was truly fitting that the Birth of my new Blog "Tales from the Settee" started on the same month as this years Celebrations for Los Angeles Gay Pride. Not to mention I was the first few seconds in the news report for KTLA News when they did their story,
http://ktla.com/2015/06/14/l-a-pride-parade-draws-thousands-to-west-hollywood/.

Congratulations to  Los Angeles Gay Pride for celebrating 45 years commemorating the Stone Wall Riots.
..... and for those who got up so early their eyes needed crutches to help them dodge the mass of flamboyant crowds in the streets, (Pauses to take sip from a colorful cocktail glass while kicking the crutches under the Settee). Not like me at all...
      Thousands of people on Santa Monica Blvd. joined in the festivities by laughing and rejoicing in the freedoms that where fought by lives and passion in our nation 45 years ago. The crowd contained a spectrum of the community, from the young generation who have only been to a few Prides, to the older generations who have been supporting the festival and its history for some time. While most of the younger generation are at the festival to let loose and dance, the older generation still knows how to reflect while enjoying themselves. 
                We hope the younger generation will learn their Gay History as much as they want to party. Having a personal responsibility to know our history is important so we can direct our own future. My only challenge to the older generation was that they pass on their love for Gay Pride and the knowledge it brings. We have opportunities to express ourselves to our little ones of that hope, love, and how we obtained it. 
    So being a inquisitive Drag Queen I went around the parade and festival and caught a few off guard with some questions about their gay history. One of my favorites was Pam. I happen to catch her before she got in her car and she was more then willing to be a victim of interrogation. Now it's not so bad, I did make it multiple choice so you have options, but I did try to trip them up... Pam did well on her first question, but not on the harder one just after.
 
    Even after the Parade had finished I was able to snag a group and ask them some harder questions that had no multiple choice, but I gave them a life line to grab someone walking by and help with the question. Let's see how many Pride dwellers it takes to answer a question..... 
     Even though the Questions may be hard, we can always ask a friend to help us answer them. Helping us start more conversations and build our friendships with others in the community.  I was truly blessed by the people I met, and my life will be forever influenced to help pass on the knowledge and friendly conversation. I hope it influences others to make the same decisions and start the conversation with others around them.

Yes I will start it all...

To all my Little Doves, this is Iona Uradreams on My Pink Settee with My Media Muse.
May my Whispers and Tales always be with you in all your adventures.
