On Sunday, June 2, 2013, members of Bay Area Intactivists marched in the Santa Cruz LGBT Pride Parade to raise awareness of the damage caused by circumcision and the human right to genital integrity. In the United States, Federal law has protected girls from genital mutilation since 1997 but boys and intersex children continue to be denied equal rights to keep their whole bodies.
<p>Founded in 2001, Bay Area Intactivists is a human rights organization with members working to eradicate all forms of genital mutilation including routine infant circumcision. Members participate in various community events to educate and raise awareness of the right of all individuals—male, female, and intersex—to genital autonomy.
