First Honk Against H8 Events

The first series of Honk Against H8 events were loud and boisterous in NYC, Atlanta, Chicago, and Los Angeles. Thank you everyone who joined in and made noise for equality.

Good news! Yesterday, the CA Supreme Court agreed to hear opposition arguments on Prop 8. That means our work is just beginning. We will continue to rally with other groups to combine forces and keep the protests going.

We have set a second Honk Against H8 Day - December 17 at 5:08PM-5:16PM. These 8 minutes are an important display of unity. Stay tuned in the next few days for more updates.
