LIGHT UP THE NIGHT FOR EQUALITY | DECEMBER 20, 2008 | 5PM
WHAT IS IT?
On December 20th, we ask that you join us again for a nation-wide demonstration that will make an impact on the private sector. Candlelight vigils will be held at commercial centers in cities across the country in remembrance of the rights that once were for 18,000 marriages, and in honor of the rights that one day will be again - for EVERYONE.
HOW DOES IT WORK?

  • Please take to your local commercial district at 5PM--be it a shopping mall, outdoor financial center, you name it.
  • This will be a peaceful demonstration in the spirit of the holidays.
  • We'll dress alike: make or buy a "Second Class Citizen" t-shirt.
  • This will be the culmination of our National Food Drive for Equality event (see below for details)
WHAT WILL WE BE DOING?

  • Hosting peaceful candlelight vigils
  • We will stay silent unless asked a question, we will not yell, instigate, or bare signs. Instead, we will let our shirts do the talking and our candles pay our respects.Bring candles (battery powered if you'll be huddling inside).
  • Singing and/or silence encouraged...chanting is not....keep it peaceful and in the holiday spirit.

Please, remember to be respectful of those who may disagree with us. They will never understand us if we only react to them with aggression!

Incredible to hear your stories of the LUTN vigil at this location. I have a step-sister in this location and am so glad this is happening here. My partner and I went for a visit. It happened to be Easter weekend. How strange to see a huge city basically empty. The 5-lane freeways were empty and the skyscrapers were all lit to reveal what amounted to giant crosses. It was a twilight zone moment. So, here is a shout out from friends in San Francisco.
Thanks for everything.
