NOH8


Okay I just want to let everyone know that I love this new campaign that they are doing. If you dont know what NOH8 is I'll give you a brief overview. Its a silent protest against the California Proposition 8. (Their decision to only recongnize a marragie between a man and a woman.) The photographer and co-founder Adam Bouska takes pictures of regular people, and sometimes celebs, in a white tee in front of a white back drop. The catch, their mouth is duck taped and the logo NOH8 is written on their cheek. I love this because it really shows all the people out their that have support for same sex marrages. Me personal really support gay marriages, I mean if someone is happy, who are you to take that away from them. Its not like they are really hurting you. This protest is very widely known and according to Wiki 2000 official photos have been taken and 1400 photos have been submitted by supporters. This is really crazy. Im currently looking into creating my own imitation of this ad. If you want to know more about this campaign, there website is NOH8. If you have a twitter, well your in luck so do they one. They even have a Facebook. What are your thoughts about this campaign. Opinions on same sex marriage. Leave comments below.
