This weekend is PRIDE in Atlanta. PRIDE is always an exciting and emotional time for the LGBT community and our supporters/allies. This year’s PRIDE marks the 40th anniversary of these celebrations in Atlanta. I’ve lived in Atlanta all of my life, and I’ve grown up with the PRIDE celebrations. Every summer the community would take to the park to make their presence known, and to celebrate the diversity and unity of our collective people. There have been changes throughout the years, but the overall message has stayed the same – our community unites each year to celebrate who we are, how far we’ve come, and to look to where we want to be.

Each fall welcomes a rush of activity, as the city of Atlanta switches gears and prepares for the return to school. Shopping malls are a hustle and bustle of parent’s and student’s trying to find that perfect first day outfit which will identify them as the right balance of scholarly and cool. Electronics fly off the shelves as families stock up on the latest and greatest in available calculators, computers and other gadgetry that are needed for today’s student. Doctor’s office waiting rooms are overflowing as students prepare for immunizations, sports physicals and routine checkups.
There is an excitement and tension that overtakes the city as we all prepare for the educational lessons that await us each fall.
