ARC statement at Rad Pride rally July 2026

Pride. Why pride? Why do we gay people utilize the word pride to describe our actions and relation to the world? The reason we identify with the word pride is the same reason that oppressed people all over the globe identify with the word pride, which is that we have been made to feel shame.

Tips to stay safe and effective. Make a plan with your comrades and stick with it. No phones or keep to a minimum. Know and accept the risks, but avoid arrest. Do not use arrest as a protest tactic. Your comrades should know where you will be and what you will do because you've spoken about it!

Who are the Atlantic Regional Communists (ARC)? www.arc-party.org
As scientific socialists, ARC understands economic relations develop and influence the social and political structures, behaviours, and relations of a given society; however humanity has agency to change. Structures, behaviours, and relations within a society affect one another and also shape and condition economic relations. Through investigation and practice, humanity can turn from the present colonial and capitalist reality and move toward a future free of these old relations of domination.
