Boston Pride has announced that it will dissolve following multiple allegations of racism, and claims that they ignored transgender people.
In a statement, the organization’s board, which was made up of only white people, apologized for the lack of intersectionality. They also said more work needed to be done, and that they are making way for new leaders who are more attentive to progressive demands.
“For years, we have volunteered our time with Boston Pride because we care about and are passionate about the LGBTQIA+ community. We strived to foster an environment of diversity and unity within our organization and the community. Over the past 50 years, Boston Pride has facilitated programs and events that have changed our society and promoted equality, but we know there is still work to be done,” says the group.
