The Joburg People’s Pride movement held its third annual march through Hillbrow and Braamfontein on Saturday 21 November; remembering the activists who started South Africa’s LGBTI rights movement.
Participants began the afternoon by making placards at Constitution Hill before embarking on the march with the intention of “reclaiming” the streets and making a radical political statement.
They stopped at significant locations in Hillbrow, such as Simon Nkoli Corner, to commemorate the late activist who co-founded Gays and Lesbians of the Witwatersrand (GLOW) in the 1980s.
