Sunday morning, despite a perfect day with 80 degree temperatures and a full sky of sunshine, it finally rained. This was the Motor City's first Pride celebration following the marriage equality decision and the Sunday festivities were highly overshadowed by the June 12 shootings at Pulse in Orlando, Fla.
Ironically the 2016 Pride Parade theme was "Uniting for Unity," and was bigger and more vibrant than last year. Hundreds marched in the Pride Parade and even more flocked into the gates to celebrate LGBTQ identities.
