Lesbian mom asked to quit PTA over Prop. 8
The San Jose Mercury News reports that a lesbian mother in Fresno says she was forced to resign from her position as president of the parent-teacher association at her son's Catholic school after she spoke out against banning gay marriage.
The Prop. 8 Protest in Long Beach on November 7th began and ended at Redondo and Broadway. There were three parts of the march that were scheduled out for picking up more protestors who were coming to meet up and join the march. The third and last leg was the pickup point at Broadway and Alamitos which was where many news vans were parked and waiting. Police had the streets blocked off and my contact on the inside said they were not scheduled to march past their, rather speakers were meant to give a message.
Californians Against 8 is organizing a protest at the capital building in Sacramento this Sunday, November 9th at 1:00pm. Please email californiansagainst8@gmail.com for more information and to get involved! We will not give up the hope of experiencing equal rights in our country!
In Solidarity,

I am one of the women involved in a horrible and hateful attack, which occurred on Oct. 31 around 5pm on the corner of Fruitvale in Oakland, underneath the 580 freeway in the parking lot there.
To all the straight dudes like me out there:
It’s the day before the election.
