ROCK for EQUALITY

The other day, I posted about the huge group lobbying for the equality in social security benefits in the USfor same sex couples. The gay centre is a general group for LGBT but it is also in support of another huge group working especially on the issue of social security equality. It is called ROCK FOR EQUALITY. L.A.Times had just runs a front page article about it and it's primary mission to fight discrimination. The group is in the front row lobbying the recognition of rights same-sex couples in access to social security. Here is the link for their website to know more and a video of testimonies of couples's experience about the social security benefits they struggle to access: http://rockforequality.org
 

It is worth knowing the issue and the people who have been silenced for years and are now out in search for respect and equality.
