"Inauguration Week / January 17 - 24: Help educate America. Join us Inauguration Week, January 17 to 24, for the first "Online March for Equality." The simple act of posting this site to your Facebook profile AND changing your profile picture will help spread the word and send a message of equality at a critical time in our Nation's political history. If we're ever going to achieve equality, it's going to happen because we educate all Americans about the important rights we're fighting for: tax fairness, hospital visitation, medical decision-making, exemption from estate taxes, spousal immigration, and government benefits -- just to name a few." http://equalitymatters.org/ Wasn't sure if anyone would be interested in this or not. I think I may be bold enough to jump on board. Details and stories are on the site above.
Not sure if I have the guts to do that one on my own-but I sent it to 6 people that are my closest/most liberal/gay friends.
Sent to 359 friends. I just realised how many friends I have... EDIT: :tear: Facebook=lame...I have to send them all again.
I tried sending it to 104 friends, but an error occurred. It happened again the second time, so I invited a good deal less and only one of the persons I invited hadn't been invited already. Good to see that my network of friends has already been spreading the word among each other.
Oddly enough a lot of the people RSVPed missed the concept. The point of changing the picture was to make people see it and spread awareness. Most seem to have not changed their picture. Others said things like "Sorry, I'll be out of town.":eusa_doh: Maybe everyone will catch on by the end of the week.
