Article is not entirely true. It appears that the IFBP left Los Angeles Black pride the first black pride celebrated around the world on purpose. It is a fact that I wrote the first article here on Wiki about the IFBP in November 2009. And I have documents to proof that the LA black pride started in 1988 a few years before other prides and that ATB "at the beach" Los Angeles was amongst the pride organizations that started the IFBP. Brewing conflict between the IFBP and ATB should not be a reason to skewer the truth for political and economic favors.

Wiki's mission is to promote information in truth and not allow politically or economic motivated information

Peer Review

Reading the article was very interesting; however the article can use some pictures to make it more intriguing. Also try to keep it from being opinionated. Facts are very essential to the article. I also believe if you create different subsections that ties into the LGBT community as well can help with the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rexiipooh (talk • contribs) 07:13, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
