I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that came on Saturday. It was my first protest/rally/whatever it was, and I had a lot of fun. I've really wanted to get involved in the fight for equal rights, and I feel like this was a good start. It just meant a lot to me to be around so many people who felt the same way I do. I hope that I can do a lot more to help soon.

As we began our march, the skies opened up and the rain poured down on Washington DC. Afterwards, a rainbow stretched across the sky.
I thought it was cool. Comments? |
