For the Weekend

This week was epic. First with the Obama victory and the spontaneous riot in the streets of Berkeley, then yesterday, I marched in the streets of San Francisco with thousands of people with my roommates and friends in support of the many homosexual couples who lost their right to marry on Tuesday.

While walking (what felt like miles) from the Civic Center to Dolores Park, a few moments almost brought me to tears:

• A pair of daddies carrying their twin babies on their chests while the babies held "No on Prop 8" signs.
• Two mommies guiding their daughter across the street while she shouted "No more hate!"
• Linking arms with my friends and chanting with the crowd "What do we want?" "Equality" "When do we want it?" "Now!"

Saturdays are always lazy for me, but today I felt inspired to make a little photo-collage in honor of this weekend's escapades...politics with a side of fashion; a good combination I think.
