Separate but equal isn't equal.

I posted almost three years ago about the movie "Milk", starring Sean Penn.  I remember being home sick from work, renting the movie OnDemand, and crying throughout different parts of the film. 

Looking back on our history, 'separate but equal' was founded to be unfair between the races, and soon - someday hopefully very soon - we will make the strides as a nation and as a human race to make sure that 'separate but equal' is inapplicable to the differences in sexual preference as well. 

Check out the below video...its pretty amazing, and gave me chills throughout.  I love what Sarah Silverman says at one point, comparing marriage to a country club...  I'd love to hear what your thoughts are on the video.


What was one of the strongest messages for you from the video?  I also really loved when Gaga dedicated the song to Jaime, and then roared into the microphone.  Just gives me chills.

This is SUCH an amazing video - we posted it last week - I def think its someone everyone should watch! We cried throughout the whole thing. We have come so far already, but we have SUCH a long way to go!
