“Pride is a protest. All should take this time to remember that also in The Netherlands there’s still progress to be made.

But Pride is also a time for the LGBTQ+ community - and allies - to come together and celebrate. We have so much to be proud of, from our resilience to our capacity for love. Pride encourages us to celebrate ourselves, our identities, and all that we have won so far. So we also celebrate that love is love!”
