Tensions are brewing and the Chicago Dyke March Collective is facing accusations of anti-Semitism after organizers asked two women carrying rainbow pride flags with a large Star of David symbol on them to leave the Saturday afternoon march and rally.
This post has been updated with new statements on the incident. Update: Dyke March & women asked to leave it offer different accounts of conflict over Star of David pride flags. Photo of a rainbow pride flag with the Jewish symbol the Star of David, via Wikimedia Commons
