This week, we look back at Faroe Pride, 2014. It was just two years earlier that more than 10% of the Faroese population took to the streets of Torshavn in support of LGBT rights. It was a historic event that changed the way people viewed LGBT issues in the Faroe Islands.
Two years on, the crowds are somewhat bigger, but has the event become... routine? And if it has, is that really a bad thing?
We'll hear sound recorded at last summer's march and talk to LGBT Foryar leader Eiler Fagraklett about what it's all supposed to mean.
As always, you can listen on our media player at the top of the page, on iTunes, on Stitcher Smart Radio, and really anywhere quality podcasts can be found.

On this episode, we talk about a series of photos taken at the march, you can see those pictures here.
