George Takei waved to tens of thousands of people as grand marshal of Seattle’s Pride Parade, reports Northwest Cable News.
His husband Brad Altman rode in the car with him.
“Well 40 years ago, what seemed unimaginable, today is reality,” said Takei. “We look forward to the day – I think this decade – when we will indeed have the United States of America.”
