It’s 9.30 on Saturday morning, the sun is in the sky and Amnesty International activists from around 30 countries are gathering for Riga Pride 2008. Yellow t-shirts abound at the side of the venue for the march.
The street we’ll be marching on is within a major police cordon, showing how seriously the authorities have taken the safety of the marchers. Hopefully, in a few years, this won’t be necessary, but for now, it’s very reassuring.
