Video: Reading officials join in raising Transgender Flag at City Hall

Reading Pride Celebration and the City of Reading hosted a Transgender Flag Raising Ceremony Thursday late afternoon, honoring the Transgender Day of Visibility, celebrating the contributions of our transgender siblings to society and raising awareness about the discrimination faced by transgender people worldwide.

The ceremony was scheduled to take place on the steps of City Hall, but due to the potential for severe weather, the event took place in City Council Chambers.
