The LGBTQ community will keep pushing for equality and won’t quit soon. “What you’re seeing today will continue to happen,” he said. Walking, marching, and battling will continue. We won’t be leaving your TV screens; we’ll stay there forever. 2. They don’t care whether or not people choose to support them.

Background In an effort to raise awareness of LGBTQ+ people, Kwaku Darkwah Kyei-Darkwah, a sales executive and stylist for some big fashion labels, was seen walking the streets of London.

He shouted into a loudhailer, calling for freedom and an end to discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community. Others joined in, chanting in unison.
