Northampton – Already the site of one of the region’s oldest and biggest gay pride marches, Northampton is about to become home of the first transgender march in the eastern United States.

The New England Transgender March and Rally, which is scheduled for June 7, will feature speakers and entertainers from across the spectrum of the transgender community and is expected to draw participants from across the country. It will be a separate event from the 27th Annual Pride March scheduled for May 3.
