The indefatigable folks of the No On 8 coalition have released a new ad featuring the parents of a lesbian daughter. They don’t treat her any differently than they do their straight children, they say. Why should the state? Spread it around:
Give if you can (and if you’re not in Arizona or Florida, fighting marriage bans in your own state), or find other ways to take action, regardless of where you live. Make sure you’re registered to vote. 43 days until the election, folks. What are you doing to help the causes you believe in?
[Update: Karen Ocamb at Bilerico has more on this first ad from No On 8, including where it is scheduled to air, how much it will cost to run, and the response from Yes on 8.]
I love the ad I saw at Lesbian Dad with all of the kids of lesbian and gay parents (under Marriage Equality and Our Former Babysitter).
Couldn’t resist! It was a home-made video that our former babysitter worked on with friends (not an ad, per se, but a made-for YouTube/social networks jobbie). Looks to me to be fellow camp counselors at the LGBT family camp that she’s worked at for years.
Here it is:
Pass it on! And pass the hankies.
Ooops. No can paste.
View it here at my post.
