Cuban gay rights activists held an unauthorized independent pride parade in Havana despite the Communist government warning against it and calling it subversive. - NBCOUT
Activists called for their own parade after the state-run National Center for Sex Education earlier this week abruptly canceled its 12th annual conga against homophobia - Cuba’s equivalent of gay pride.
The United States has for decades financed often covert programs to promote democracy on the island and undermine the Communist government. LGBT activists kiss during a demonstration against homophobia and transphobia in Havana on May 11, 2019.CENESEX denounced the alternative parade as a “provocation” and several activists say they received threats either anonymously on social media or from state security in person not to attend it - not that it stopped them.
