Statewide Day of Action to Repeal Prop 8 Date: Saturday, February 6, 2010 Time: 10:30am - 4:00pm Location: Oakland and San Francisco Join grassroot political leaders, gay activists, soccer moms, Joe Sixpacks, and other Bay Area residents in Oakland and San Francisco for a statewide day of action to repeal Proposition 8.

The second goal is to collect 100,000 signatures, statewide, to help qualify language for the November ballot to repeal Proposition 8 this year. Our visibility will show support and resolve for a movement that includes the federal court case, and supports a ballot repeal effort regardless of whether that's in 2010, 2012, or beyond. We need your help to secure equality for our friends and our selves, and give California the opportunity to show that it is better than Prop 8 Oakland: Rockridge BART Station Parking Lot, 10:30 a.m. San Francisco: Justin Herman Plaza, 1 Market Street (@ Embarcadero), 11 a.m. All-ages afterparty at Americano, 8 Mission St (@ Embarcadero), 4 p.m. For more information on local events, call 510-847-1981.
