The National Equality March will take place this Sunday, October 11th in Washington DC. This will be the fifth gay-rights march on Washington others were held in 1979, 1987,1992 and 2000.
Every year they have been fighting for the same equal rights we are asking for now. (Which makes my heart sink a bit)
The focus includes the repeal of the military's Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy and the anti-gay Defense of Marriage Act, as well as the passage of GLBT-inclusive federal hate crimes legislation, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, and an immigration bill that would allow same-sex partners of U.S. citizens to obtain permanent resident status.
I hope if your in the DC area you get out and march for EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY... esp your favorite lesbians!!
