The 26th annual Philly Black Pride took place April 24-27 at various locations throughout the Philadelphia area. This year’s theme, “Love is Love,” was reflected in a dynamic lineup of events, including two new additions aimed at helping attendees navigate today’s social and emotional challenges. On Saturday, Rooted offered a day-long wellness retreat filled with movement classes, high-intensity training, sound healing, and group games designed to support mental and physical well-being. The weekend concluded with Thrive, a new Black LGBTQ+ summit held Sunday, where panelists engaged in vital conversations on topics such as trans liberation, family planning, drug use and sexuality, and the complexity of masculinity.
