WELCOME TO THE 4TH ANNUAL SAN FERNANDO VALLEY PRIDE
Hello Fam!
SOMOS FAMILIA VALLE was founded on September 6, 2014. We organized the first San Fernando Valley Pride March and Conference on October 12, 2014 in Panorama City with the theme "COMING OUT OF THE SHADOWS". Many people belittled us and tried to stop us from organizing this event, but we did not give up. We hoped to get at least 20 out participants. Instead we had 100! Our second San Fernando Valley Pride was on November 14, 2015 in Pacoima with the theme "MORE THAN MARRIAGE", which brought together 200 neighbors. Last year, we held our third SFV Pride "A SAFER PLACE TO CALL HOME" on Saturday, November 13 in Van Nuys and more than 350 youth, parents, and allies rallied and got their free education with us. 2017 is here and we are committed to continue thriving forward. The SFV Pride March and Conference is our biggest LGBTQ+ community of the year.
We are a community-based organization, all-volunteer, created and led by local, low-income, first-generation college students of color who are also openly LGBTQ+ and immigrants. We are courageous, passionate, and bold freedom fighters from the San Fernando Valley dedicated to support, train, empower, and mobilize LGBTQ+ people, our families, and allies for racial, gender, economic, and environmental justice.
Now more than ever, we must organize to resist bullying, rejection, exclusion, structural violence, detention, and criminalization. Many of us and our families are being directly impacted by Donald Trump's fascist administration and those who replicate his corruption, ignorance, political games, and fake allyship in our very own San Fernando Valley neighborhoods.
We must resist. We must reclaim our human worth and rights. Let this be a rebirth of the fight that our trans and queer ancestors of color were about, and beyond. Take action and register now to receive updates by filling out the form below.
Save the date: Saturday, November 18, 2017. You are welcome to REVITALIZE PRIDE in the Valley by showing up to this event. Thank you.
