PRIDE FORT LAUDERDALE SPECIAL EDITION Welcome to the Pride Fort Lauderdale edition of Hotspots. This year represents the second year that the event will be held on Fort Lauderdale’s sunny beach and it promises to be the best yet! Our appreciation goes out to the organizers who tirelessly work all year to ensure the success of this important event. This year’s theme is Love Pride, which is so appropriate given what is happening in Washington and Tallahassee lately. Let’s never forget why Pride events are held all around the world. This is our moment to shine and remind ourselves that the battle for equality is not over, not to mention the hard work that was done by
those who came before us in an effort to stamp out bigotry and homophobia to name a few. Please enjoy the pride feature written by Scott Holland, it has all the information you need to know about the celebration. Also, when you are there, drop by the Hotspots Special Events Vehicle near the stage and say hello. Also, check out the Hotspots Live booth by the stage as we broadcast to our You Tube channel! So, it’s time to join forces once again in the spirit of love and equality and say: We are stronger together and we will not stand for anything less than equality among all of humankind!
