More Than a Thousand Protest Repeal of Obamacare at Queer Dance Party in Philly

HeadlineJan 26, 2017

In Philadelphia, over a thousand people also took to the streets for a Queer Dance Party Wednesday night to protest Trump’s visit to Philadelphia today. The dance party was a protest against the Republicans’ plan to repeal the Affordable Care Act. The invitation to the protest read: “As they try to take away our health care, to police Black, Brown, Queer and Trans bodies, to regulate our bodies, we’re here to say We Are Queer, We Are Here, We Will Dance.”
