by Mike Rhodes (mikerhodes [at] comcast.net)
The photos below are from a rally held at Fresno City Hall (November 15, 2008) to speak out against Proposition 8. Speakers included Robin McGehee (pictured immediately below). About 500 people attended the rally and march, which many people described as the start of a new civil rights movement.
