Saturday, November 15th is a a national day of marriage equality organized by Join the Impact. Protests against marriage inequality (Prop 8, etc) are scheduled to begin on the steps of every city hall at 1:30 P.M. EST / 10:30 A.M. PST.

As some of you know, Caddie is working on a documentary about marriage equality in America. While the doc will be ongoing for a few years, she’s releasing a few spots for Tuesday’s election. On the ballot in California is Proposition 8, which would eliminate the rights of many couples in California. Cad’s first two PSAs are live:

“Speak Now for Equality”

Also on YouTube:
1. Speak Now for Equality :: PSA #1
2. Speak Now for Equality :: PSA #2

A bit more from Caddie: “Turns out, creating PSA’s is no easy task, hence the late release date. I plan to continue this project after the election – regardless of the outcome we obviously have a long way to go.

Please send on to friends and family – especially those who may be California citizens.

Special thanks to everyone who helped out, participated and sent kind words. Extra special thanks to Monique Reymond, Mark Gerstner, Jim Gilbane, Meghan Scott and Ben Kopke who were integral to the production of this piece and all that follow.”

NO ON 8

Do you have an opinion on same sex marriage? I’d like to hear it (and record it) along with your thoughts on marriage in general for some short documentaries I’m making. I will be recording conversations – think StoryCorps with a rolling camera – in LA, NYC and SF – in the coming weeks. Please e-mail me caddie.hastings (at) gmail.com if you’d be willing to participate.
