Protesters temporarily block San Francisco Pride parade
CNNA group of about 10 protesters blocked the San Francisco Pride parade for about an hour Sunday. San Francisco police said in a statement that the protesters blocked the parade route at 11 a.m. at Market Street near Sixth Street and that police attempted to contact them. Police said that after Pride event organizers made contact with the protesters, the protesters agreed to leave the street at noon and reopen the parade route. A contingent of Google employees petitioned the Pride parade to revoke Google's sponsorship because of what they called hate speech on Google platforms, including YouTube, KBHK reported. San Francisco Pride declined to revoke the sponsorship.
