Every day it becomes more and more clear that Sylvia Rivera was right, we never should have settled for Pride when we could have had Power.

I mean, pride before the fall as they say. Power flows to the one who know how. Desire alone is not enough.

For those who don't know, the memorial parades following Stonewall were called many things, "Gay Liberation Parades," "Gay Power Parades," etc. It was L. Craig Schoonmaker who suggested using "pride" as the umbrella term, making it less political and more personal.
