Demonstrators gathered in Washington on Sunday for World Pride, a bi-annual event that this year took on political overtones.

The city holds a local Pride parade annually. But this year’s event will be much bigger, as Washington hosts the WorldPride Parade, which attracts visitors from around the world. Sydney hosted it last time, and Amsterdam is up next.

President Trump’s administration has not formally recognized Pride Month this year but has doubled down on LGBTQ-related actions some advocates deem hostile — even as one of the world’s largest Pride celebrations takes place in the nation’s capital.
