Pride weekend kicked-off with a vibrant concert on Friday featuring Grammy-award winning singer Christina Aguilera and a host of talent and speakers at the Hudson Yards.
“The love and joy of pride has to be verbs and particularly now, we need allies like me to show up. I really appreciate the rainbow flags and the rainbow stickers, but if you are not speaking out against the book ban, if you are not speaking out against the pieces of legislation,” Clinton charged, “If you are not speaking out for the protection, the rights, the dignity and the agency of trans children and their parents, we need you to be better allies.
Transgender rights advocate and actress Angelica Ross played host for the evening, introducing performers such as Johnny Manuel, Kellen Stancil, Mila Jam, Netta and BETTY, DJ Lina Bradford as well as remarks were made by Laverne Cox, Alok Vaid-Menon, Raquel Willis, Dale Soules, Valentina Sampaio, Julie J, Henry Muñoz III, Waleed Diab and Bruce A.

Aguilera provided the crowd with an emotional experience as they sang along to her hits “Beautiful” and “Fighter.” Hundreds of attendees waved their pride flags and held each other as they danced to the music. In between the performances and speakers, attendees were able to view the visual campaign for Stonewall Day 2023 and the plans to create a Stonewall National Monument Visitor Center , which is set to open on June 28, 2024 .
