Parasol Patrol
Parasol Patrol’s goal is to protect children and young people from protesters at LGBTQ and BIPOC-centered events. Volunteers with the nonprofit use umbrellas, rainbow or otherwise, as shields to block kids and families from hateful signs and pass out noise-canceling headphones to protect attendees from abhorrent language. Sometimes volunteers will also escort families into the venue to keep them safe.
