Title: Protest In New York
Post by: alisenjafi on November 10, 2008, 07:07:00 pm
Wednesday, November 12th there will be a rally to protest the recent passage of California ’s Proposition 8, overturning same-sex marriage.  The rally will take place from 6:30pm to 8:00pm outside New York Manhattan Mormon Temple -- 125 Columbus Avenue (& 65th Street ).
Here is a description of the event from the organizers:
    Tens of thousands of our brothers and sisters are in the streets in California and Salt Lake City and around the country protesting the votes banning same-sex marriage in California .

Join them! Make your voices heard right here in New York City .

 Tell the Mormon Church how we feel about its relentless campaign to condemn and control our lives. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was, by far, the biggest financer of California 's heinous and hateful Proposition 8. The Mormon Church asked their members to donate money to Prop 8, pouring 20 million dollars into the campaign. And their attacks on us didn't start there and aren't about to end. They're plotting right now to bring their money and influence to bear against the LGBT community everywhere in this country, including trying to prevent marriage equality in New York
