91 Photos of Pride and Cheer in Charleston

Charleston showed its spirit by rallying to put on a great Pride celebration, when only a week earlier many of the streets were still flooded by recent storms. Two weeks ago, people living on and around Charleston's South Battery Street donned old clothes and began cleaning up the mess surrounding their homes after Irma's storm surge had subsided, according to South Carolina newspaper The State.

The greater Charleston Pride Week 2017 took place September 16- 23. Headliners included Big Freedia and David Hernandez. Find out more about Charleston Pride at www.charlestonpride.org.
