"march for equality" | saturday | october 11, 2009 | 9:01 pm
ODAY WAS A PERFECT FALL DAY. The sky was clear. The sun was bright. The
weather was cool. And the leaves of the trees in the neighborhood are changing. It was a perfect day for a day
in the park, for a walk around the area, for a protest march. Greg and I attended the
Seattle March for Quality,
which was held in conjunction with the
march on Washington, DC.
There were probably a few hundred people in Seattle's March, which started in Volunteer Park, wound its way
through Capitol Hill, and down to the Seattle courthouse downtown. I had hoped for more participation and was glad
to be able to lend my presence, my voice, and my steps. It was Greg's first march, first protest. I think
it was a learning experience for me, for him, for the city, and hopefully for the nation.
All in all, it was a good National Coming Out Day.
