One Struggle One Fight's Page

We've been out in the streets every time the community has marched, and we've participated in civil disobedience four times. We've pub crawled through the Castro to have conversations about the Movement, we've thrown parties for civil rights, we've held a guerrilla screening of MILK in the streets of the Castro, and we pitched tents on the Civic Center lawn on the night before the CA Supreme Court heard oral arguments to oveturn Prop 8.

And from March 25-30, we marched from San Francisco to Sacramento to call for the repeal of Prop 8 and to connect with communities along the way--including Walnut Creek, CA, one of the designated cities of the Get Engaged Tour.

On May 26th, when the Supreme Court announced its decision to uphold Prop 8, we peacefully and non-violently blocked a major intersection with 211 people eventually being arrested by the police and several hundred others supporting us in our effort.

We believe that our struggle for LGBT equality and civil rights is part of a larger struggle for peace and for social justice. That's why we've reached out to other movements - Labor, Anti-War, Racial Justice, Youth Empowerment, Violence Prevention, and Anti-Poverty, to name a few. This is a Movement of Movements, because we have incredible power when we stand up for and with each other.
