CA State Capitol Tomorrow, Nov 22!

0 Comments Published November 21st, 2008 in APB.

sactographicI heard about this event yesterday from a fine fine lesbian blogger in the town of my birth:  

Please join us as we reach out to all the citizens of California to demonstrate that we will not tolerate discrimination to be written into our State Constitution.
 
Who: Anyone and everyone.

Where: California State Capitol Building, Sacramento, CA

When: 11/22/08 2:00PM

Why: Equal Rights are inalienable and CANNOT be taken away.

In 1987 the largest rally for gay rights in Sacramento took place, counting 15,000 strong.  We need to stand together and make a statement that we will not stand idly by and let the rights of our sons, daughters, parents, and friends be taken away.  Twenty one years later — Are YOU ready to make history?

And hey: Attorney Gloria Allred and comedians Margaret Cho &  Selene Luna are confirmed speakers!

    Lesbian Dad Lesbian Dad is written by a parent who answers to the name "Baba" and works toward a world in which amor does indeed vincit omnia.

    Still curious? You'll find a ton more on the About page. Or the Glossary. Or the Best of LD. The closest thing to an origin story can be found in this six-post series, excerpted from an essay of mine describing the dawn of my lesbian fatherhood.
