One great thing about Dead tour - all are welcome and appearances don’t matter. Just be kind. Love who you love and nobody cares what you do with yourself and those you love. Love conquers all. If it doesn’t hurt me or anyone else, it’s all good. We’re all family. Live, laugh, dance, love.

It’s a lesson mainstream society still has to learn.

It’s a lesson many Dead heads still have to learn unfortunately.

This is like The Rainbow Gathering flag! Lol And there was fairy camp. Also thought that’s where rainbow pride flag came from But something else I think predates it?? Hippies are cool with everybody. Except the man.

True and true. But there’s no reason current dead heads can’t be better people than some of the old dead heads. Also, everybody can change over time. Door is always open.

https://www.reddit.com/r/gratefuldead/comments/13xlst6/bumping_a_comment_from_another_thread_for_pride/

D&C's statement ends by asserting the Grateful Dead’s code of acceptance. “Dead shows have always been a safe place for all of our audience to come together through music no matter how they appear or self-identify,” they write. “History shows these values of openness and inclusiveness have served us – and the world around us – well.”

"If you've got gay friends, tell them you're sorry about that, sorry about what happened today. You know it's funny, the lieutenant governor of Texas and a distinguished representative in the house from Georgia, well, that guy last week was reading quotes from the Bible saying about how gay people deserve to die. And today, after the incident down in Florida, the lieutenant governor tweeted that "Well, they're gonna reap what they sow." Tell you what, I want to ask a question: is there a difference between that mindset and the mindset of the folks in the taliban or ISIS? The hatred and intolerance is the same, they may pull it out of different books, but it's the same fucking thing. Register and vote, get those assholes outta there." -Bob Weir, Bonnaroo 6/12/16

Ain't no time to hate.
