On Freedom’s Frontier
Freedom of choice. As a nation we take it for granted, even though it isn’t something we are all free to pursue—especially for gay, lesbian, and transgender people. More than just a demonstration about marriage rights, National Freedom to Marry Week (February 12–18) and local observances organized by the Houston-based Foundation for Family and Marriage Equality will be both a rally and protest to fight for our individual right to choose. To culminate the week, several couples will converge in a mass same-sex wedding on February 18 to publicly proclaim their love and commitment to each other in a fight for their freedom to choose to marry.
