The Chicago Transit Authority has decorated several train cars with rainbows as it has in previous years, but a new installment this year is rainbow crosswalks!

Chicago is painting 14 rainbow crosswalks in Boystown, currently, 7 have been completed. The crosswalks mark the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots, an uprising against homophobic police raids at the Stonewall Inn in NYC, which was a huge milestone for the LGBT struggle for equality.
Funding for the project was donated from the Chicago Pride Fest and the street festival Northalsted Market Days.

The 14th completed crosswalk will be dedicated to the transgender community with the inclusion of the blue, pink and white stripes found on the transgender flag.
