I attended a Protest for Prop 8 this weekend at the LA City Hall. People across the country were also protesting at City Halls nation wide. It was very exciting, and there was such an amazing energy in the air. Everyone was very peaceful, but passionate and clear about wanting equal marriage rights. I felt so happy to be a part of it. I believe everyone should have the right to marry the person they love.
There were so many clever, thought provoking signs. Here are a few of my favorites:
It was completely surreal to be walking on the streets of Downtown with no cars around. The crowd was huge and you could feel that something very special was happening not only in LA, but across the country.
Crossing over the 101 Freeway was the moment that took my breath away. The city was shut down, and I felt the power of people united. I was enlightened and inspired.
