Overturn Prop 8 Rally at City Halls Across Texas Saturday


by: tuckerma

Fri Nov 14, 2008 at 04:05 PM CST


(This is Saturday at City Hall in Austin at 12:30. More info here. - promoted by Karl-Thomas Musselman)

There are events going on nationwide tomorrow in protest of California's passage of Proposition 8, an amendment to the CA state constitution that bans same-sex marriages.

In Austin, there will be a major gathering in front of City Hall at 12:30. The turnout is expected to be large - as of 4:16 pm on Friday, 792 people are already "confirmed guests" on the Houston/Austin facebook page alone! My workplace seems to be abuzz about it. Everyone who supports this issue is encouraged to turn out, bring friends, and make signs in support of marriage equality.

Check out the Texas page here. It includes events listed in Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Fort Worth, Corpus Christi, the Valley, Denton, and Lubbock.

There have been protests going on all over California since the election, but this is the first time that we in Texas have had an opportunity to participate, to my knowledge. How exciting!

Join the Impact!

Thank you for posting this (0.00 / 0)
It really matters.

Logic and an open mind are more useful than common sense.
