Here are more pics from this year's Dyke March – saving by far the best pic for last (for other pics besides these, see Bash Back's posting at: http://chicago.indymedia.org/newswire/display/83058/index.php).

This year, the Dyke March organizers took the unprecedented step of moving the march from its traditional location in pre-dominately white Andersoenville to the predominately Mexican-American Pilsen neighborhood. In doing so they wanted to reflect the fact that the majority of Chicagoans, and LGBT people, are people of color. They also wanted to send a strong message of solidarity and against gentrification.
