NATIONWIDE — Gays, lesbians, and straight allies plan to call in “gay” (not sick) to work on December 10, 2008 to protest passage of anti-gay constitutional amendments in Arizona, Florida, and California. Instead of showing up for work, protesters plan to volunteer for local gay and civil rights organizations across the country.
Every day since Election Day, thousands have protested up and down streets in cities across California, including in Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco and Sacramento. A national, grassroots coalition of LGBT activists have followed in their footsteps. Now gay citizens and their allies are teaming up to show America and the world how we can love.
On December 10, 2008 the gay community will take a historic stance against hatred by donating their time to a variety of different causes in order to raise public awareness of the need for LGBT equality in marriage and in other civil rights.
