"Organizers of the #NewYork #DykeMarch, one of the largest #LGBTQ #Pride events for women worldwide, announced that individuals identified as “#Zionists” will not be permitted to participate in this year’s march, set for June 28.

In a public statement, the group said it has formally added opposition to "#Zionism" to its list of core principles, citing a commitment “to the community’s values against Zionism, #racism and anti-LGBTQ hatred.”

„Wir - jüdische und nichtjüdische Queers - sind jene Gruppe, die am Dyke-March-Soli-Abend in der #MöbelOlfe attackiert wurde. Wir sind gemeinsam mit anderen jüdischen und nichtjüdischen Queers in der vor Kurzem gegründeten Gruppe Dykes, Women and Queers against Antisemitism organisiert, die nach zahlreichen antisemitischen Vorfällen in der queeren Szene zusammengefunden hat.“

“The petition to have a Dyke Chilling Park sign permanently installed as an art
piece was unsuccessful, however the following year The Queer Spacing ad hoc Collective (this time consisting of Cynthia Brooke, Ifetayo Alabi, and Anonymous) installed a "Trans* Chilling Park" sign on the morning of the Dyke March, 2019 as a rebellious response to the protests and propaganda circulated by TERFS (Trans exclusionary radical feminists). The demonstration of solidarity with Trans folk was particularly poignant and timely, and evidence of a positive legacy established by our first disruptive sign. Meanwhile, Dyke Chilling Park lives on in the stickers we handed l out, the selfies and social media posts the queer community posted with the sign, and you can still "check in" to Dyke Chilling Park on Google Maps.”

In 2012 the “Dude Chilling Park” sign was taken down by the city but the local community loved it so much they petitioned to keep it. Now the official City of #Vancouver site says this:

“The Board received a request from Mount Pleasant residents, along with 1,500 signatures of support, to reinstall the sign permanently because it celebrates the unique characteristics of the park and neighbouring community.”

In 2019 during the #DykeMarch an equivalent sign went up at a different park and a petition got started for #DykeChillingPark as well.

“A petition has been launched to request for the sign to be permanent installed as an art installation at the park to "support the value and importance of recognizing queer space".”

The Georgia StraightCould East Vancouver get a permanent Dyke Chilling Park sign?Vancouver has Dude Chilling Park—but will an LGBT version be next?

“With no corporate involvement, the Dyke March is still a political movement at its core—and in a year that has already seen a “whiplash of hatred,” as Livengood calls it, we need a Pride protest now more than ever. But the celebratory, artistic elements of the Dyke March do not detract from its activism; rather, they are part of it.”
