PHOTOS: San Francisco Pride, Then and Now
A record number of people turned out for Pride in San Francisco two years ago — more than a million, by some accounts. Plus, support for the event could not be more mainstream, if skewed a little to the Silicon Valley side: Apple, Google, Yahoo, Dropbox, Uber, Twitter, and official grand sponsor Airbnb all were major participants. These photos of the 2014 parade by Tommy Wu show that San Francisco retains its title as "The City That Knows How." Interspersed with Wu's images are pictures my gay dad, Bob Harrity, took in — what I am guessing — is 1978. A lot has changed since then, but the spirits of 2014 and 1978 have a lot in common. Thanks Tommy Wu, and thanks to Dad, who is in the big Pride parade in the sky. — Christopher Harrity
