National Equality March
On October 11, a crowd of 150,000 gay rights supporters marched down Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C. to demand full equality under the law. The march, organized by a national network of LGBT activists, was the largest of its kind since 2000. Among other celebrities, “Sex and the City” star Cynthia Nixon spoke at the event and reminded the crowd of its importance: “We are gathered here today from all over the U.S., and back home many of us are deeply embroiled in the particular local battles that we are fighting… when we walk away from here tonight, we need to walk away with a common national resolve.”
