On November 4, 2008 Proposition 8 passed in California, amending the state Constitution to ban same-sex marriage.
This was a short time after the public voted to ALLOW same sex marriages! Many people married, people who shared their lived for years, people who loved very much, families were joined. Only to have this torn apart.
Celebrity photographer, Adam Bouska and his partner Jeff Parshley began a silent campaign in protest. To this date there have been over 8000 photographs taken in protest. There are now shoots staged all around the US! And people are photographing themselves in their silent protests.
We have a NOH8 campaign here in Second Life also. YOU can show your support but sending a photo of yourself or with friends and have it displayed at the gallery!
The girls & I submitted ours today!
Please remember not to hate~make this world a better place.
