In the midst of the impending transformation that most of us celebrated on November 4th, the inhumane passage of Prop 8 saddened a nation already geared up for progress. But on Saturday, we have the chance to participate in a national uprising that could help overturn Prop 8 – thus promoting a generous leap toward real equality for the whole country. Bring your signs, banners, and friends to City Hall at 12:30 p.m. this Saturday, and don’t forget to send out the call to allies across state lines. Demonstrations are scheduled in every state in America on Saturday, so make sure everyone you know is aware that their protest will be heard. [More info]
