Still the largest march occurred in 1993, called the\u00a0March on Washington for Lesbian, Gay, and Bi Equal Rights and Liberation. Estimates of the crowd size vary, with organizers estimating a million in attendance, with\u00a0the D.C. Police Department coming up with a similar count of 800,000 to over one million.<\/p>\n<p>The first such demonstration, the National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights, took place in 1979, which drew around 125,000.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/queerty-prodweb.s3.amazonaws.com\/2017\/01\/800px-National_March_on_Washington_for_Lesbian_and_Gay_Rights_Button-670x503.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/queerty-prodweb.s3.amazonaws.com\/2017\/01\/800px-National_March_on_Washington_for_Lesbian_and_Gay_Rights_Button-670x503.jpg 670w, https:\/\/queerty-prodweb.s3.amazonaws.com\/2017\/01\/800px-National_March_on_Washington_for_Lesbian_and_Gay_Rights_Button-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/queerty-prodweb.s3.amazonaws.com\/2017\/01\/800px-National_March_on_Washington_for_Lesbian_and_Gay_Rights_Button.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\"><figcaption>A button from the 1979 march.

We can all march in solidarity across the country,\u201d the Facebook post continues. \u201cOur community is large enough to fill all the Pride Events scheduled that weekend. And we will make this truly a \u2018National Pride March\u2019 together.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>This is a wise move, because it not only manages to avoid the issue of undermining the work local groups have done, but also helps set up a sister rally approach, which was successful for the Women\u2019s March. It means that not only will media outlets report on\u00a0the big event in Washington, they will be able to cover related demonstrations taking place in their own backyards, increasing total coverage.<\/p>\n<p>There has been a growing sense, especially among the older generation, that a sense of complacency had set in among the LGBTQ community and our allies. After all, there have been so many advances in the fight for rights since the days of the Compton\u2019s Cafeteria and Stonewall riots.<\/p>\n<p>A whole generation of LGBTQ youth have no idea what it must have been like during the height of the HIV\/AIDS epidemic, having seen your loved ones dying around you while your government appears to be sitting idly by, doing nothing. Many are still unfamiliar with\u00a0the heroic efforts of ACT UP, who put their bodies on the line to raise awareness and force the government to take action in the fight against the illness.<\/p>\n<p>Those who still need a lesson in that bit of history should check out the excellent documentary, \u201cHow to Survive a Plague,\u201d based on a <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2kbgCqs\" target=\"_blank\">book of the same name<\/a>, which is currently available to stream on Netflix.<\/p>\n<p>The fight for same-<a title=\"\" class=\"aalmanual\" target=\"_blank\"   href=\"https:\/\/www.flirt4free.com\/live\/girls\/couples\/?mp_code=akftr\">sex<\/a> marriage was waged and won, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.queerty.com\/tag\/dont-ask-dont-tell\">Don\u2019t Ask Don\u2019t Tell<\/a> repealed, and hate crime legislation was signed into law by President Obama, leading many to believe we had reached equality, even in spite of a lack of LGBTQ protections on the federal level, with The Equality Act continuing to languish in Congress.<\/p>\n<p>Gay bars and clubs have even started vanishing, in part because people seemed to believe there was no longer a need for dedicated\u00a0spaces for us and our allies.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/queerty-prodweb.s3.amazonaws.com\/2017\/01\/Rainbow-Capitol-Building-670x311.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"670\" height=\"311\" srcset=\"https:\/\/queerty-prodweb.s3.amazonaws.com\/2017\/01\/Rainbow-Capitol-Building-670x311.jpg 670w, https:\/\/queerty-prodweb.s3.amazonaws.com\/2017\/01\/Rainbow-Capitol-Building-400x186.jpg 400w, https:\/\/queerty-prodweb.s3.amazonaws.com\/2017\/01\/Rainbow-Capitol-Building.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\"><figcaption>Rainbow Capitol Building, via National Pride March on Facebook.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The argument that there is more or less nothing to fight for, while always erroneous, is more obviously flawed now than ever.<\/p>\n<p>President Donald Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/www.queerty.com\/trump-says-obama-helped-choose-cabinet-full-homophobes-20161207\" target=\"_blank\">has filled his administration with individuals with a history of anti-LGBTQ views and voting records<\/a>, and his Supreme Court nomination list is equally disconcerting.<\/p>\n<p>The new <a href=\"http:\/\/WhiteHouse.gov\" class=\"autohyperlink\">WhiteHouse.gov<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.queerty.com\/white-houses-lgbt-rights-page-deleted-already-20170120\" target=\"_blank\">has no reference of LGBTQ rights<\/a>, unlike its predecessor which is now housed at <a href=\"http:\/\/ObamaWhiteHouse.gov\" class=\"autohyperlink\">ObamaWhiteHouse.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Centers for Disease Control <a href=\"https:\/\/www.queerty.com\/report-cdc-shut-planned-lgbtq-youth-summit-avoid-clash-trump-20170126\" target=\"_blank\">reportedly shelved plans for an LGBTQ youth summit<\/a> over concerns with how Trump would view the event.<\/p>\n<p>There are also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.queerty.com\/report-trump-closes-white-house-office-aids-policy-20170120\" target=\"_blank\">reports\u00a0that The White House Office of National AIDS Policy has been closed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Further, Trump has also <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lgbtqnation.com\/2016\/09\/donald-trump-pledges-sign-anti-lgbtq-first-amendment-defense-act\/\">said he would sign the First Amendment Defense Act into law<\/a>, which would allow for religious based discrimination in such areas as healthcare, businesses, employment, and housing.
