The actual site of the protest is the park at 66th and Columbus. As the crowds outgrow the park the police will start closing down Columbus Ave. one lane at a time. The Mormon Temple is under construction and the sidewalk in front of the Temple is closed/blocked with scaffolding and such.

SOMMS--will you be there? How many of your exes do you expect to see?

The plan apparently is to march down Broadway to Columbus Circle and end in front of the Time Warner Center with a Kiss-In.

I thought I wasn't going to attend but I have to go to St Pauls so will be walking past there and show some support. Sucks coz I have class and then volunteer work! Otherwise, Id totally be there!

Me and my boys will be there this evening. I'll be holding a tall sign that simply reads
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE

And, though not entirely confirmed, the NYC Gay Men's Chorus has been invited to sing at the City Hall rally on Saturday, November 15.

RAISE THE ROOF! NO MORE MR. NICE GAY!

Peace to my brothers and sisters gathering now in NYC. I'll never forget being at the first National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights in October of 1979 -- 100,000 strong.
And, the Second March in October of 1987 that included the AIDS Quilt on the Mall. That gathering had about a half a million people. I'll never forget walking at the beginning of the march and lapping the end of it over the two mile route. Let your voices be heard!!!

I just got back from my volunteer but man!! Getting out of the 1 was a really something but great because so many of those people were there for the peaceful protest!
I was so happy for the numbers and organized! People with their signs and megaphones organizing chants.

FYI - I'm watching L&O, and NBC's teaser for the local NYC 11PM news shows the protest.

What an amazing event! The organizers said there were 10,000 people there--some said 15,000--but it felt like 50,000.

re: NYC Protest At Mormon Temple This Wednesday 11/12

I saw Whoopi there and Marc Shaiman and Tony Kushner and Jeff Whitty and and Doug Wright and Jake Shears and so many other theaterfolk, not there to speak or perform or be noticed, just there to BE there and to take part and to be counted, as New Yorkers, in support of our brothers and sisters in California and Florida and Arizona and Arkansas, and to stand up and say our love is greater than your bigotry.

But it wasn't the celebrities who mattered. It was the fact that there were so many of us. The crowds filled up Broadway from 66th Street down to Columbus Circle. However many thousands there were--and it was thousands not hundreds--we were 50-somethings who marched for AIDS and 20-somethings who never dreamed of marching, we were gay men and lesbians and straight friends. We knew who were are and we knew why we had come. And we're not going away.

Glad it was a success! I'm looking forward to attending the demonstration here in Seattle on Saturday. Still brainstorming sign ideas. I hope there's sizable turnout across the nation.
