NO H8 Campaign - Photo Project to Repeal Prop 8

The No H8 campaign is a photo project and silent protest created by celebrity photographer Adam Bouska and his partner Jeff Barshley in direct response to the passage of proposition 8.

The photos feature people with duct tape on their mouth and No H8 painted or lipsticked onto one cheek. The photos are being used virally as peoples primary photo on social networking sites. The eventual plan is to compile the photos for billboard campaigns and magazine spreads to raise awareness and money to repeal prop 8.



Check out the photos, learn more, and submit your own at NO H8 Campaign.

The Power of Queer Opposition

One day after the results of the likely marriage ban in California queers and allies flooded the state with peaceful protests.



Above is a picture found on Joe My God of 5,000 protesters at the San Francisco city hall. I re-posted this because it demonstrates the strength of our community to stand united and to stand strong in fierce opposition to bigotry.
