No on Prop 8: “Did We Vote On YOUR Marriage?”
LGBT
Comments Off
In May of 2008, the Supreme Court of California ruled the state was unconstitutionally discriminating against same-sex couples by denying them the “fundamental right to form of a family relationship”: i.e. MARRIAGE.
However, in November 3 states, including California and Arizona will be voting on amending their state constitutions to ban same-sex marriage. Florida’s ban would go further, and threaten domestic partnerships for unmarried couples, even if they’re heterosexual.
All of the images and video clips were from California… however, gay rights groups in either of the 3 states would surely appreciate any donation possible.

LGBT-inclusive ads: ON Magazine – June 2008

Comments Off
LGBT-inclusive advertising (which depict same-sex couplehood either in images or words) among mainstream advertisers is a rare thing, indeed. This is part of my series to document companies who market a product or service meant for the general population but with an ad that targets, focuses on or includes the LGBT community.

How Racism Works
——————–
What if John McCain were a former president of the Harvard Law Review?
What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating class?
——————–
What if McCain were still married to the first woman he said “I do” to?
What if Obama were the candidate who left his first wife after she no longer
measured up to his standards?
——————–
What if Michelle Obama were a wife who not only became addicted to pain
killers, but acquired them illegally through her charitable organization?
What if Cindy McCain graduated from Harvard?
——————–
What if Obama were a member of the Keating-5?
What if McCain were a charismatic, eloquent speaker?
====================
If these questions reflected reality, do you think the polls would be as
close as they are?
What is it that rationalizes and minimizes a black candidate’s positive
qualities and qualifications?
You’re The Boss … which team would you hire with America facing historic
debt, two wars (to date), stumbling health care, a weak dollar, all-time
high prison population, mortgage crises, bank foreclosures, etc?
