The June 29 Anchorage parade of suggestively-clad sexualized drag queens, transgender unicorns, rainbow-draped abortion activists and gender-confused children would not be possible without the backing of major corporate donors, Alaska nonprofits and a litany of local businesses.
Underwriting this year’s annual spectacle of LGBTQAI2+ sexuality were “premier partners” Alaska Airlines and Walmart, along with “platinum sponsors” Alyeska Pipeline, ConocoPhillips, Fred Meyer, GCI and the Rasmusen Foundation. “Gold sponsors” were the Anchorage Assembly, Anchorage Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, Congregation Beth Sholom, Credit 1, Mayor-elect Suzanne LaFrance, St. John United Methodist Church and STOEL RIVES LLP.
These major financial backers joined the alternative-sexuality celebration with banners and floats, many enlisting young children to carry flags and signs.
Other supporters and participants in the downtown Pride Parade included: American Red Cross, REI, American Federation of Suicide Prevention, NAACP of Alaska, Rage City Roller Derby, St. John United Methodist Church, the Anchorage Assembly, YWCA of Alaska, Encore Salon, Alaska Women Ascend, Queers for Palestine, Alaska Rainbow Elders, and the National Park Service.
Renewal by Anderson, Alaska Center, University of Alaska, Four A’s, and many other entities set up booths during a post-parade festival at Delaney Park Strip, which included music, entertainment and drag queen dancers prancing around in front of young children as kids impersonated them.
The parade was organized by Alaskans Together for Equality, which supports cross-sex hormones for youth, irreversible sex-change operations, abortion on demand, biological males having access to women’s bathrooms, gender-confused males being allowed to compete on girls’ sports teams, drag-queen story hours for children, gay marriage and much more.

Much of that is not a great surprise, though still disturbing…but…The National Park Service?…Lovely. A long list of people to pray about.
AND boycott. Get them in their pocketbook/bottom line and if that is done by the most of the people for a number of months, they would change their tune. Think Bud Light.
Yes I will be boycotting these new businesses. I’ve been doing so on other businesses as well.
I already boycott most of the big ones on that list. I hope many others are as well, but people are creatures of convenience and eventual apathy.
Why are government agencies and political bodies donating public funds to this garbage?
Perhaps because they are American citizens like you.
Our government has absolutely no business promoting immorality and sin. None.
Our government agencies has no business getting politically involved. Taxpayer funds should be neutral.
satans children… willingly turned against GODS NATURE… and refuse to repent so they perish as abominations.
Because it is allowed by the people. TIME TO SPEAK UP!!
They have. Which is why we celebrate Pride, and the reason businesses are backing equality. Just like we celebrate independence and the pride of being an American.
Pride Equality?,,, Not equal Homosexuals cant have children through perverted sex,,, No pride it is submission… No equality… You and I both know this.. The world knows this.
How can the Anchorage assembly be a gold level supporter, they would be allocating public funds which would require the PUBLIC to approve, right?
Nothing wrong with children to being introduced to drag queens and gender expansiveness. Many of the drag queens perform storybook hour at the nation’s libraries (with parents & teachers present) and it is highly entertaining for the kids. Bring your kids to storybook hour before you judge it. It’s a family friendly activity
That will be a large part the downfall of western civilization. Sexual deviancy in a culture always means that culture will soon be replaced. Study history, you will learn.
You’re a Sick Individual. Bring your kids to an evil sick disgusting drag show.
I hope you don’t have children, if so I’ll be praying for your children to see the truth.
Sure, give the kids sugar coated fentanyl while you’re at it too.
You and all these perverts are disgusting. It is most definitely WRONG to expose young children to all this perverted behavior. It is even more disgusting and should be illegal for public funded agencies to be supporting this junk with pulbic money.
the site won’t let me tell you what I think……….. so much for 1st Amendment
Some fat dude with a five o’clock shadow lusting after a child…. highly entertaining…ya right… joining the millstone club is not a good thing.
It is time an independent audit is done of the assembly and city to see were tax dollars are going and what it is being spent on. Also time to find out were the money for the homeless is going and how much is going into the pockets of the people in charge.
Christians sure are concerned with sex.
No, Leftists are. They force-feed it to the innocent, then accuse Christians of what they are guilty of.
amen thank you – the left no longer has any sense of decency or right and wrong
It’s the Christians that are trying to ban contraception; I guess that’s force feeding.
No Christians are trying to ban contraception, but democrats are surgically mutilating the sex organs of children and murdering them in the womb.
Reminder to Christians, Mr.Butler is not our enemy ,but Satan is. Butler is just being used by him because of his obedience to him.
Yuk. Never met satan but I’ve read about his crimes and violence and arrogance and narcissism. Vote Trump=Vote Satan.
Not great
Y concerned about contraception but totally against abortion ( murder)!,
These corporations and businesses need to be boycotted and letters to these corporations of our plans to boycott. These celebrations represent sin against a Holy God. Sodom and Gomorrah sinned against a Holy God and our Lord sent fire and brimstone down on them. The key here is to confess our sins and then Repent of our sins. We all have sinned and fallen short.. Thumbing our noses against our Creator, a Holy God, as these sodomites and pro-aborts are doing is not the choice that leads to eternal life. Accepting the Lord’s free gift and following His statutes is the answer that He shows us. He knows we love Him if we follow His commands. Get a Bible and read his instructions. He is very clear. Keep praying for the lost!
There greatest silent advocate is Mike the useless dunleavy!
They also have a silent advocate in Mike Dunleavy
Is there a list of businesses that refused to participate? I would utilize and buy from those businesses.
I guess this is a perfect explanation of if you can’t beat them join them! It sickens me to tell people anymore that I’m from Alaska. When will we every have a country and our state back? It’s more apparent daily the answer is never. The mentally sick will run everything!
Why are Government agencies donating OUR money to a ytbi g without OUR approval?
Exactly, our government has gone rogue, full of perverts and deviants, grooming our children into their sickness.
Geez Mary. Just how naive are you?
We should boycott all businesses that believe in equality.
You think that’s clever? Equality of what? Sexual perversion and immorality?
None of these leftists belong in public office! Let’s fill all the positions with Alaska Watchman subscribers!
Anchorage, porta potty of the north.
Sick, disgusting perverts and child groomers. In your face they celebrate ‘pride’. One of the listed 7 deadly sins.
Drag queens are not out to sexually abuse, they are out to entertain. LGBTQ people just want to lead safe, peaceful lives. They are American citizens and deserve the rights of all Americans. You all should be more concerned about gun violence and the missing and murdered Alaska Native women.
Exactly. Not once, has a child been molested, abused, etc., by any drag queens. Not once. You know who statistically molests children more than any other group? Religious leaders.
Tons of kids, literally the number one cause of death in kids in America now, are killed by guns. Native women, and native peoples in general, have been targeted since the first settlers…religious settlers, forcing young children into religious schools, cutting their hair and forbidding their language and culture.
But, yes. Blame it on the drag queens, who are responsible for nothing but child friendly story hours, beauty and amazing performances. And of course, Obama and Biden.
you make good points. still, most parents don’t want draggers dancing mostly naked around kids in school. we have enough issues with the points you make so why add to it. kids should grow up free of any ” training ” until they mature to make their choices. the cliche still applies ” guns don’t kill people’, people kill people. the nra is a strong advocate of strict criminal sentences for punks mis using guns in crimes. liberal judges set them free. yay. that works great.
and yes , obumma and biden are commies.
Be careful jon, it can be quite slippery where you’re coming from.
LGBTQRS must molest and rape to continue their line they were abused and raped to allow this crap to continue makes us all abominations to GOD.
ITS WAR BUT GODS SUPPOSED PEOPLE ARE TOO COWARDLY TO FIGHT.
Speak with your pocketbook, and pen, as best you can and pray. Also if government agencies were officially supporting this event then maybe a call to Senator Sullivan who would investigate.
Bs
Alaska Airlines has come a long way from the days of prayer cards on meal trays…
Thank God for that. Jesus taught acceptance and love above all.
queers for Palestine. kidding, right
I would donate to send “Queers for Palestine” to Iran. At least they wouldn’t be coming back to America
Good summary Lee Ann. I hope it prompts some readers to reassess their insistence on cancelling those who don’t align with Christian dogma.
