Pride: It's a Global Thing

From Buenos Aires to Hong Kong, people are demanding equality, celebrating their pride, and having a great time doing it.

A large flag is carried through Hong Kong on Saturday during Gay Pride. As anti-discrimination laws continues to expand globally, participants marched to promote equal rights.

there were a couple of hundred people -- and a lot of them wore paper bags over their heads, because they would lose their jobs if they were recognized.

Last time I marched in that parade, there were over one hundred thousand people -- and no paper bags.

We've come a long way.
