Every year there is a Feria in Chapala, Jalisco. They invite master craftsmen from the region to show their wares, and have a stage set up for entertainment. In 2019 they had Flamenco dancers. It was an incredible show. #chapala #jalisco #flamenco #mexico #photography

We don’t celebrate Pride for the rainbows or parades, we do it because *right now* someone out there believes they don’t deserve love, just because of who they are or who they love.
That’s why we celebrate Pride—because we want to build a world where no one feels that way.

The new variant is unpleasant. Please do your part to avoid it. 😷

It takes nothing from society to let people be themselves. Literally nothing.
But it sure takes a lot to deprive people of that ability.
