Watch Anna At Chicago Pride 2024

Family, I had a ball MC’ing the Sidetrack The Video Bar float in this years Chicago Pride Parade. We are so beautifully & wonderfully made & I got to see it up close & personal!

My final spot of the day had to be Chicago Urban Pride Biggest LGBTQ Events. Ion how Trina Truluv Robinson & Deonte Pennington do it. They continue to cultivate these spaces for Black LGBTQ folks & there was a so much love in Jackson Park. This Pride was one for the books.

It’s a second look at a topic that feels increasingly dismissed and minimized. It’s Second Sunday.
