Although I wish I'd done more in hindsight, I did put a lot of money and effort into fighting Prop 8 prior to its shocking passage. Now that my overwhelming anger has subsided to the point where I can think clearly, I'm ready to fight for the inevitable repeal. I have money I'm ready to give, but I'm no legal scholar, and I don't pretend to understand the differences between all of the groups competing for my donations. I'm writing this diary to ask Kossack input into where exactly should I focus my support.
I've made comments asking for input in other diaries, and gotten a few responses. The problem for me is, I've gotten at least five reasonable responses to this question:
- Courage Campaign
- National Center for Lesbian Rights
- Equality California
- Lambda Legal
- ACLU of Northern California
I'm not trying to be difficult here, but I feel like it'd be better for me to send $100 to the group who is actually LEADING the fight against this assault rather than $20 to each and every one. I want to give today, and give again and again as this battle moves on. I feel like my support prior to the General Elections was probably not as well used as it could've been, and I don't wanna feel that way again.
Any input from the masses here?
