National Equality March Update
Posted on 10. Oct, 2009 by Matthew Clark in GAYtor Bait
I’m sorry if anyone’s reading this expecting details on the March. Things have been crazy since I got in town and this is my first time getting a chance to sit down in front of the computer.
Here’s a quick and dirty of what you need to know:
- Flashmob protest for Equality was bad-ass. An intern from The Nation says he’s putting up a video on the Web site. We’ll see when it comes up. I have videos of my own to add once I get it up. And lots of pictures.
- HRC had letters info and supplies for you to write a letter to your representative concerning issues. Corrine Brown, expect a letter.
- The other protest for DADT was a straight-up from the post-8 NoH8 playbook. I left after 45 minutes, and they were still asking people to text and call people to come.
- The Cleve Jones and Sherry Wolf liberation talk wasn’t a talk. It was a call to action! The place was packed, and people were gathered outside just to listen. It was inspirational in the least.
- I’m already late for the HRC picket, and I don’t know if I’ll be able to make it. We’ll see.
March tomorrow!
Gay, Straight, Black White! Same struggle, same fight!
