EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Bob Battersby captures a momentous event in London's history - the Gay Pride Parade of 1979. The image showcases the vibrant atmosphere that engulfed Piccadilly, as thousands of people flooded the streets to celebrate love, diversity, and equality. In this particular shot, we see a group of jubilant parade participants marching alongside Green Park, accompanied by an escort from the Metropolitan Police. The presence of these police constables and sergeant is significant as it symbolizes a turning point in LGBTQ+ rights activism. It was only ten years prior to this event that the Stonewall Riots took place in New York City, sparking a global movement for gay liberation. The photograph also highlights the involvement of press photographers who were present to document this historic occasion. Their lenses captured not only the exuberance and joy on display but also served as a powerful tool for raising awareness about LGBTQ+ issues during a time when acceptance was still limited. Decades later, this image serves as a reminder of how far society has come in terms of embracing diversity and inclusivity while acknowledging that there is still work to be done. It stands as an emblematic representation of London's rich cultural heritage and its ongoing commitment to fostering an environment where everyone can live authentically without fear or discrimination.
