The upcoming Pride festivities are more than just a chance to bathe in glitter and wave a rainbow flag around. It’s progress putting one foot in front of the other, making whichever way you express yourself something that should be accepted in the everyday. Metro Manila Pride’s tireless organizers, Loreen Ordoño and Nicky Castillo, drop by the TEAM HQ to remind us that the queerest day of the year (besides Halloween) is both a protest and a party—and that if we keep on marching and making who we are visible, we might one day reach the rights we’ve been deprived of for so long.
