Coming Together in the African American Community for Marriage Rights for All!

On Nov. 23, several hundred activists gathered at Leimark Park in the Crenshaw to demand equality of Marriage Rights for all people regardless of sexual orientation, race and/or religion. The fight against Prop 8 continues! 2 short videos & pics included.

Prop 8 Rally in the Hood - Crenshaw Blvd, Leimark Park, Los Aneles, CA - Nov 23, 2008 - composite picture On Sunday, November 23, I joined my African American brothers and sisters in the Crenshaw District to demand Equal Rights for all and to protest the passage of Prop 8 in California. This was an invigorating and wonderful opportunity to counter the ultra right's assertation (and some of the media reporting) that the African American community does not support the equal rights for GLBT people. We marched up Crenshaw Blvd and then gathered back in Leimark Park to hear the Reverend Freda address the crowd and cheer us on in the continuing fight for the dignity and happiness of all people. As a member of the white GLBT community, I was so happy to add my voice to the assembly of diversity and to demonstrate we are all united in this cause. Please check out my Blog post at: My views on the Rally for more of my thoughts and some additional pictures. I have also postd to short video clips (one of the march down Crenshaw Blvd and one of Rev Freda addressing the crowd).

I am so proud of our community - Black, Brown and White, GLBT and Straight - The People UNITED, Can Never be Defeated!

others want to rip off the singles, too

by PrionPartyy Friday, Nov. 28, 2008 at 12:41 PM

Marriage rights for all? Well what about the single Americans??? Why sould married people be getting special rights and privilages that do not apply to single Americans? Why do single Americans get screwed over? Why do single Americans have to subsidize married people's families by giving them tax write offs for the children they have?
