To those GLBT brothers and sisters fighting for their rights in California right now
Edited on Thu Nov-06-08 09:39 PM by Katzenkavalier
This message is for you:

"An implacable eye is watching us, and that eye is our own eye. The present is watching us; the future will know about us, like we know about those who came before us. If you have not felt at some point like true beings of the century you live in, but observed and judged by some sort of future conscience; if you have not felt at some point as beings who belong to a future that is already a present, who are judging with rigor and mercy those who came before you (and that might have been just like you), then the experiment (of our lives) has failed." -Antonio Buero Vallejo, Spanish playwright (Translated by Katzenkavalier)

This is your moment. Don't let up- your cause is the Civil Rights cause of our time. Rest assured- millions of fellow Americans are backing you up, your pal Katz included.

:hug:

Link to march (thanks, grancart):

5. Its not for you -- they won't let you marry then there sure is no reason for them to let me marry.

You Fight for civil rights to protect your own not as a favor for someone else.
