Equality OC - Join us
Aug 3 2009, 7:37 PM EDT
Description: On October 10-11, 2009, we will gather in Washington, D.C. from all across America to let our elected leaders know that now is the time for full equal rights for LGBT people. This is simply a major national strategy to kick start our national grassroots Equality Across America campaign. We will gather. We will strategize. We will march. And we will leave energized and empowered to do the work that needs to be done in every community across the nation. This is only the beginning. We are starting a group of organizers to do the groundwork in OC. At the meeting we will be discussing the National March on Washington and related events including the cross-country caravan for equality. We will announce upcoming events/fundraisers; get feedback from those who spoke with their Congressional Representatives and discuss Orange County's involvement in the strides for equality. You do not have to be attending the march in DC to attend this meeting. Anyone who wants to help make strides towards equality is welcome. We need your input! Time: Thursday, August 13 from 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM Location: Denny's (Santa Ana, CA) 2314 E 17th Street Santa Ana, CA 92701 Directions: Located off of the 55 Fwy at 17th St & Tustin 2 out of 2 found this valuable.

I live in Phoenix and would like to attend. If I can, I was wondering if anyone would be willing to take me from/to the airport....I hate to ask, but I haven't been to Santa Ana in years. If that isn't possible I'll see you on Oct 10-11th. I won't be dissapointed as I know picking folks up can be a pain in the buttocks.

I may be a little confused. Are you coming to town for other reasons as this is just a planning meeting. We would definitely love to have you there, but I guess it sounds like you're talking about coming in from Phoenix just for the meeting, so I'm a little confused. The meeting place is only about 10 minutes from the airport, so I'm sure something could be worked out. Feel free to message me at Equality.OC@nationalequalitymarch.com so we can talk further.

"How do we get the the home page updated and get the National March for Equality on it. Join the Impact can have a enough of an impact to get thousands of GLBT people motivated to march on DC. Let's not let this opportunity pass - the March is happening - that's a done deal. A million person turnout is up to us - please, please, help! Does anyone know who the administrators of this site are? 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

Let's not let this opportunity pass - the March is happening - that's a done deal. A million person turnout is up to us - please, please, help! Does anyone know who the administrators of this site are?"All I ask is this: Do something. Try something. Speaking out, showing up, writing a letter, a check, a strongly worded e-mail. Pick a cause -- there are few unworthy ones. And nudge yourself past the brink of tacit support to action. Once a month, once a year, or just once. -Joss Whedon, writer and film director (b. 1964) John and I will be marching in DC on October 11th. If you can’t join us, please march locally in solidarity wherever you are. http://nationalmarch.seattleoutprotest.org/?page_id=88 Do you find this valuable? |

I will join you in DC! I'm flying solo from Long Beach. For those who can't make it, support someone who is and show your support back home with rally/march. Excited to meet all the great people that are taking on this journey. Thank you for your courage!Do you find this valuable? |
