Please don’t divorce…” Courage Campaign community photo project
Infamous prosecutor Ken Starr has filed a legal brief — on behalf of the “Yes on 8” campaign — to nullify the 18,000 same-sex marriages performed in California between May and November of 2008.
It’s time to put a face to Ken Starr’s shameful legal proceedings. To put a face to the 18,000 couples facing forcible divorce. To put a face to marriage equality. Because, gay or straight, YOU are the face of the Marriage Equality Movement.
Please click through the photos in the slideshows below and then submit your own photo, as an individual, a couple or in a group (perhaps with your family over the holidays). Take a picture holding a piece of paper that says “Please don’t divorce us,” “Please don’t divorce my moms,””Please don’t divorce my friends, Dawn and Audrey,” “Please don’t divorce Californians” or whatever you want after “Please don’t divorce…” and send it to: pleasedontdivorce@couragecampaign.org.
- No matter your marital status or sexual orientation, will you share your photo with us, as part of a community photo project?
- If so, please take a picture with a plain 8.5″ by 11″ piece of paper that sends a special message, like “Please don’t divorce us,” “Please don’t divorce my mothers,” “Please don’t divorce my friends, Name and Name,” or “Please don’t divorce Californians.” Print it out, or write it clearly in big, block letters.Then send your pictures to us at:
- PleaseDontDivorce@CourageCampaign.org
- We’ll put all of your pics together in one place and make sure all the right people get the message — the lawyers behind the effort, the press, our friends and neighbors.
