Get your grass skirt ready for a Pride Luau on June 27. To request access or inquire about any specifics, email Pride Week: Upstate SCĪccording to Upstate Black Pride’s website, the weeklong event is an opportunity for marginalized people to enjoy a celebration for the entire community. Events scheduled include a Meet & Greet, Wine Tasting, Pageant, Trans Fashion Show, and multiple After Parties galore. The film screening will be open to anyone, regardless of county of residence, but does require a password. This survey will allow attendees to make suggestions for future Pride Month programs, as well as the implementation of more LGBTQ-inclusionary resources. The Chatham County Library is encouraging post-screening feedback from all participants. The threat of being outed at church, where the pastor believes Cole is a nice respectable young man, is especially trying, as the two take their faith very seriously and have little trouble maintaining an inclusive vision of Christianity, despite what they’ve been taught. The Hollywood Reporter review of the documentary offers this summary: The subject of “Deep Run,” Cole Ray Davis, struggles to come out as a lesbian and then later to come out as a transgender man over the course of the film. The library wanted to focus on small, local areas demonstrating that LGBTQ people can come from anywhere and should be afforded the same level of respect as any non-LGBTQ individual.
The Chatham Community Library will host daily virtual screenings of the documentary “Deep Run.” Released in 2015, the film explores the life of a transgender man living in Lenoir County, N.C. The theme is “Be the Rainbow.” For directions, hotel special rates, COVID precautions and more, visit .Ĭhatham County Pride Virtual Film Screening The Outfest Drag Pageant will continue throughout the day with competition categories in presentation, evening gown, talent and response to onstage questions.

If you are a Pride celebration in the Carolinas and you don’t see yours listed here, or you would like to update some details, feel free to contact us so we can add it to the online version of the story. We have tried to list something about every event that we were able to find.
Some Pride celebrations may be smaller than in years before and some may not happen at all. We’ve tried to be as thorough as possible with this list, but please keep in mind that events everywhere continue to be impacted by the global pandemic. A few celebrations are attempting to recapture the excitement of large crowds, outdoor events with stage shows, vendor markets and parades, though they are in the minority.
