Day Without a Gay: Riverside Response
The gay marriage protests have run their courses, the town hall meetings are ongoing, and people are looking for the next step. Causecast and Actual Action invite you to participate in RIVERSIDE RESPONSE, to coincide with the “Day without a Gay” on December 10th, 2008.

We hope to introduce ourselves through a day of community service, putting faces to the issue at hand. Please check actualaction.org or causecast.org for more details.
