If we as a community can come together, even for a moment, to realize we’ve broken down some barriers put on us, it’ll strengthen our resolve to continue tearing more down for those to come after us.”Īll LA Pride 2021 events will use the hashtag #ThrivewithPride.Ĭharli XCX will kick off LA Pride 2021 on Thursday night, June 10 with a free Thrive with Pride Concert, live streamed exclusively on TikTok from an LA location on TikTok.Ĭharli spent last year working on new tracks by sharing and collaborating with her fans on Zoom. “It’s a moment to remember you’re not just surviving one of the hardest years in recent memory, but growing into your truth. Pride this year is a moment for you to stop and breathe,” said Sharon-Franklin Brown, CSW Board of Directors President.

“To thrive means to flourish and progress despite the circumstances. When we live with a sense of belonging, confidence, security, and self-worth, we’re not just surviving, we’re thriving! Thrive with Pride was chosen for this year’s theme of LA Pride 2021, not just to highlight health and wellness as we slowly emerge from the pandemic, but more notably, to underscore the belief that thriving is an act of social justice within the LGBTQ+ community, especially for our underserved or overlooked members. LA Pride 2021 theme is “Thrive with Pride”
