Stepping beyond the comfort zones of rallies and marches we take our message directly to the people and one of the organizations that have brought about gay apartheid in the United States.<br /><br />Protesters should come with signs and their voices. This is a peaceful demonstration, but the anger against the members of the Catholic Church in New York City, who helped by their affiliation to the Catholic Church in Maine pass the hateful Question 1 in Maine yesterday need to know that no longer can we live as a nation that is separate and not equal.<br /><br />Protest participants are also encouraged to call their U.S. elected officials at 202-224-3121 and tell them that supporting gay apartheid on all fronts is wrong. It is against the 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution.<br /><br />Protest Details can be found below and at:<br />www.tinyurl.com/gayapartheidprotest<br /><br />Gay Apartheid Protest Details:<br /><br />Sunday, November 8, 2009<br />Outside St. Patrick's Cathedral<br />9 AM - 1 PM<br />460 Madison Ave<br />New York, NY 10022-6863<br />__________________________________________________<br /><br />Alan L.
