This photo was shot June 24th 2022 in San Francisco as protesters reacted to the Supreme Court ruling which overturned Roe v. Wade, holding that there is no longer a federal constitutional right to an abortion. The Happy Pride sign on the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium is seen grounding the uncomfortable reality that while trying to celebrate some rights, others were actively being rolled back. Typically this last Friday in June would have been the kickoff to Pride Weekend and a celebration for many, but this ruling brought back the protests that were historically at the root of Pride.
