Asks 'What Kind of World Do You Want?'
Images of Martin Luther King Jr. and pioneering moments in gay history make up the National Equality Rally's new YouTube promo video, "What Kind of World Do You Want?"
Organizers of the forthcoming National Equality Rally in Philadelphia launched a video on YouTube Wednesday promoting the event.
Set to the music of Five for Fighting's "What Kind of World Do You Want?" the video kicks off with an image of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech before segueing into images of gay rights rallies, marches, and historic moments.
