A press release from COLAGE just appeared in my in box. Here’s an extract:

The morning before the election, COLAGE heard from a parent in our community. Her 7 year old son had approached her, upset, in a concerned voice said, “Mama, I hope Prop 8 doesn’t win.” I agreed with him, and then he said, “Because if it does, you and Mommy will be split up and our family won’t be together.”

While we at COLAGE all identify with the fear and sadness that Emmett expressed, we want to tell him and all the other COLAGErs around the country that nothing and no one can take away or split up your family. We know the truth; Love makes a family. Our families deserve equal respect and rights.

In case you have forgotten, COLAGE is an organization made of up kids who have LGBT parents. They are our future. Your help is appreciated.
