First California
and then the United States. Now, on the heels of rallies
and protests all across the country, a group of panelists
will gather at Los Angeles's Gay and Lesbian
Center for a broadcast forum discussing Proposition 8
-- accessible all over the world.
The same-sex
marriage ban, which passed with a slim majority in the
November 4 election, has sparked heated discussion across
the country, with proponents of equal rights taking to
the streets and gathering in rallies en masse.
Tonight's
90-minute town hall will be hosted by noted gay journalist
Karen Ocamb, who will lead the panel in a discussion on
"Prop. 8: The Facts and Future."
Several Prop. 8
experts will join Ocamb, including Gay and Lesbian Center
CEO Lorri Jean, Equality California executive director Geoff
Kors, and Amy Balliett, the 26-year-old activist who
coordinated the nationwide Prop. 8 protests through
her website, JointheImpact.com.
