Rally to honor David Kato at Harvey Milk Plaza WHAT: Rally to honor David Kato WHERE: Harvey Milk Plaza, Castro Street THEME: Stop killing queers DATE: Thursday, February 3 TIME: 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM http://mpetrelis.blogspot.com/2011/01/february-3-sf-protest-over-murdered-gay.html We are asking everyone to bring signs specifically opposing the death penalty, hangings, stonings, state-sanctioned and extrajudicial executions. We also want posters addressing global gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, third-sex and intersex solidarity. Rainbow flags would help.This is a grass-roots action by Gays Without Borders, alias gays without a budget. Only you can make it happen and with proper fabulous signage and colors. South African-born Clinton Fein, political artist and activist explains why February 3 was chosen as the date. "Our San Francisco protest will coincide with the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C., taking place on the morning of Feb. 3. "The Family, a secretive Christian organization behind the prayer breakfast, has more than enough blood on its hateful hands when it comes to gays and Uganda, and must be held to account," Clinton wrote in an email. "Our aim is to co-opt the National Prayer Breakfast from the Left Coast with our loud voices and raised fists. "Let the world know that some of the people behind this constitutionally precarious National Prayer Breakfast are doing a lot more than simply placing homosexuals in crosshairs on websites. They're shaping deathly legislation and are one step away from handing out hammers. Enough is enough."
