One last THANK YOU before Global Black Pride goes quiet for a little while.

10,500+ of you marched through the streets of Paris. Thousands more joined us throughout the week. Before we step back to rest, reflect and rebuild, I want to acknowledge the people who made that possible.

To the Global Black Pride team — especially those who started building Paris with us almost two years ago — thank you. Many of you gave your time, talent and labor without pay. What the world saw in Paris was possible because you kept showing up, even when there were no resources to compensate you.

To our volunteers, Board, local partners, the City of Paris, and every organizer, DJ, artist and performer who gave their time and talent: thank you.

To the promoters from across the globe who came together for us, many without pay: you brought your communities, platforms and energy and showed what is possible when we choose collaboration.

The truth is, Global Black Pride did not secure major funding this year. Apart from Outright International and a few individuals who stepped forward, we had very limited resources.

But YOU showed up.

You registered for the conference. You bought gala and event tickets. You donated, volunteered and performed. You got on planes and trains and came to Paris because Black queer people gathering, organizing and celebrating our joy was worth it.

We faced gatekeeping and attempts to undermine Global Black Pride and see it end.

But we found a way.

10,500+ marched anyway. Thousands more showed up anyway. We organized, danced and celebrated anyway.

Paris reminded us: Global Black Pride matters.

Now we will rest, listen, learn and rebuild. When we return, we will be stronger and more sustainable, because we cannot keep asking our community to carry this work without resources.

Before we go quiet, remember this:

Our headline sponsor this year was YOU.

Our team. Our volunteers. Our promoters. Our artists. Our partners. Our Board. Every person who registered, bought a ticket, donated, traveled, marched, danced and believed.

You carried Global Black Pride.

Thank you. We will never forget it.

Paris witnessed a Black carpet like no other.

Hosted by Vinii Ravelon, the Global Black Pride Black Excellence Awards Gala welcomed Niecy Nash-Betts, Jessica Betts, Hosh Ibrahim, Giselle Palmer, Lady Phyll and an extraordinary gathering of Black LGBTQ+ icons, artists, activists and movement leaders from around the world.

One of the most global Black queer carpets ever assembled — across countries, generations, cultures and movements.

Black. Queer. Global. Iconic.

This is Global Black Pride.

Occuper l’espace est politique.

Pour ouvrir la @global_blackpride à Paris, @male_et_diction a investi la scène avec une performance drag king des plus politiques.
Et ce n’était pas anodin.

Parce qu’être drag king, queer, noir·e et occuper l’espace, c’est aussi bousculer les représentations quant à celles et ceux que l’on (n’) attend pas en certains lieux.

Nos communautés ont dû créé leurs propres espaces parce qu’il a longtemps fallu le faire. Des lieux pour se retrouver, créer, performer, s’organiser, respirer aussi.
Mais nous n’avons pas vocation à rester uniquement dans les espaces que nous avons dû construire pour nous-mêmes.

Les espaces institutionnels aussi sont les nôtres.

Nos corps, nos identités, nos cultures et nos expressions de genre ont leur place partout : dans la rue, sur scène, comme dans les lieux de pouvoir, dans les institutions.

Pas seulement lorsqu’on nous invite à parler de diversité.
Pas seulement pendant les Pride.
Pas seulement lorsqu’il est confortable de nous voir.

Merci à @chapelle_saint_lazare_10e et @mairie10paris d’avoir ouvert leurs portes!

@globalblackpride in Paris but we made it POSH, so you already know it was a whole vibe. 🇫🇷✨

Curated at the iconic @larcparis, it was the perfect close to a weekend celebrating pride, music, fashion, culture, and our global community. 🖤🌍 Next POSH Tour Stops: NYC Halloween 10/30 & Miami Art Basel 12/6 taken in Paris, France by @global_blackpride

La semaine dernière, la Global Black Pride a eu lieu pour la toute première fois en France ! Un moment de fête et de célébration où la capitale a vibré pour célébrer les fiertés LGBT noires.

On est allés à la rencontre des personnes présentes pour les questionner sur l’importance d’un tel événement, et pour répondre à celles et ceux ne comprenant pas l’utilité d’une pride spécialement organisée pour mettre en lumière les personnes noires et racisées. 🏳️‍🌈
