National Equality March Leader Appears in Chicago Saturday
DOMA, DADT, ENDA... Thirty years have passed since the first time LGBT Americans got their cookies together to march on Washington and though the acronyms might be different, the fight remains unchanged. The National Equality March, set for October 10-11, aims to update the queer rights debate and send a message to the nation's lawmakers. The march is being spearheaded by long-time LGBT rights activist Cleve Jones, who will appear in Chicago this Saturday, August 29, at the Victory Gardens Theater.
