The day of her graduation, a same-sex marriage rally was taking place in the city so Ciara wanted to make her views clear by bringing a Pride flag to the stage. The graduate took to Twitter to share her reasons for her decision, saying: “Nothing was stopping me from making a statement on the same day thousands marched for equal marriage.”During the #equalmarriage rally, this student was unfurling a rainbow flag at her @QueensUBelfast graduation.#Solidarity @Love_EqualityNI pic.twitter.com/wR6zlM0uiV
