Louisville, Kentucky is gearing up for its annual Gay Pride celebrations. Tensions run high as the LGBTQ community reels over the previous week's events. "This has been a 9/11 moment for my community", says barman, Travis Phelps. There is a tangible fear that violence will blight the weekend. But the march is a roaring success, with the community coming together to support their LGTBQ contingent. Dr. Muhammad Babar is using Pride to try and forge links between the Islamic and LGBTQ communities in Louisville. It's not only the gay minority that has suffered violence; Muhammad's mosque was vandalised in the wake of the Paris attacks in November 2015. "We have not faced this much hatred and Islamophobia, even after 9/11", he says. Orlando has also once again raised the issue of gun control. Gun store owner, Barry Laws feels as if "the world wants to neuter America right now", and blames society for not training its members to defend themselves. Meanwhile the marginalised and scared members of America's minorities hope that something positive can come out of the horrific tragedy.
