Thousands Meet in the Middle 4 Equality


Lr. Dan Choi speaks up in Fresno

On Saturday thousands of gays, lesbians and their friends and supporters met in the middle of California to march for marriage equality.

The marchers walked from Selma, California to Fresno in an attempt to reach folks in the state's heartland, where gay visibility is presumably lowest. Celebs like T.R. Knight, Charlize Theron, Dustin Lance Black, Eric McCormack, and lifetime activist Cleve Jones were among those who participated, as was recently discharged National Guard Lt. Dan Choi, seen above.

More photos at the LA Times and below you can watch a video from the scene as a group of gay couples marched on to City Hall from Unite the Fight.

Did any of our readers make it to the rally? We'd love to hear about your experiences.

Selma to Fresno

Cool! Quite some stamina to do this! I'll be in San Francisco for a couple of days mid July and I hope to witness something like that or even join (won't have much time).

My dream would come true if at the same time I could bump into Eric McCormack!!! Aaaaaaah! Great guy! Love how he is actively involved and speaks out in favour of the gay community from time to time! Brilliant!
