Black Lives Matter Toronto briefly halts Gaye Pride parade

Members of the Black Lives Matter Toronto group briefly halted the Pride parade today, holding up the marching for about 30 minutes.

Members of Black Lives Matter Toronto, who were part of the parade as honoured guests, held up the marching for about 30 minutes.

The parade didn't re-start until after Pride Toronto executive director Mathieu Chantelois signed a document agreeing to the group's demands.

The organization was given the status of Honoured Group for the parade, which is the grand finale of Pride Month. It did not give Pride Toronto advance notice of their planned sit-in.

Alexandra Williams, a co-founder of Black Lives Matter Toronto, told CBC's Natasha Fatah that they held the sit-in because they wanted to hold Pride Toronto accountable for what she called "anti-blackness."

Williams defended the group's actions.

"It's always the appropriate time to make sure folks know about the marginalization of black people, of black queer youth, black trans youth, of black trans people," she said.

The black agitators don’t like getting sent to the back of the bus by the new more victimy victim groups.

Some of the other demands Chantelois agreed to are that the parade will no longer have police floats, and the organization will hold a public town hall with groups such as Black Lives Matter Toronto within six months.

Ought to be a parade to watch (from afar) NEXT year.

One of these days, they’ll interrupt one-another’s ginned up “protests” and come to fisticuffs, I predict.

They deserve one another, but nobody deserves either.

I wonder what they all did out in the streets to kill time. Bleh.

BLM - a ‘grassroots’ group run by the FEDS and staffed with many non-negro anarchists.

Just curious, but after Orlando, the FBI said that “If you see something odd say something!”
If you see something odd or queer at a homo parade what do you say?

It sure as heck wasn’t filling out job applications! Well, I suppose it would be kind of hard for them to do that when reading or writing is bit much for them.....
