Okay, I promise to end this image posting phase I’m going through, but I was again struck by a powerful photograph – this time a positive one.
The caption for this photo was,
Del Martin, 87, center left, and Phyllis Lyon, 84, center right, are married by San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom , center, in a special ceremony at City Hall in San Francisco, Monday, June 16, 2008.
I can only hope that images like these help to shatter the awful, ignorant bigotry gay marriage faces. It lifts your heart to see some progress made while, at the same time, breaking it – how long have these two women not been afforded the rights and dignity they surely deserve?
