MILK + LOVE on 12/20: We're "here to recruit you"
Can you sign up to host a screening of "MILK" and then bring your movie watchers to Join the Impact's "Light Up the Night" candlelight vigil?
On Saturday, December 20, our friends at the volunteer-powered Join the Impact are organizing "Light Up the Night" candlelight vigils across America to draw attention to the 18,000 same-sex couples who were married in California before Prop 8 passed.
Can you host a screening of "MILK" that afternoon in your community and then bring your movie watchers to Hosting MILK + LOVE is really easy — we guide you step-by-step through a successful event. As an We'll email Courage Campaign members near you next week to help build the audience (those attending will be responsible for buying their own tickets), but we need someone to pick the "MILK" showtime and print out the "Repeal Prop 8" pledge sheets for the vigil. Over 300,000 people have signed the "Repeal Prop 8" pledge launched by the Courage Campaign and joined by MoveOn.org, CREDO Mobile and Join the Impact. To restore marriage equality to California, we want 1 million people to sign the pledge. At the vigil, please help us get there by gathering as many signatures as possible.
