Supreme Court Rally December 4 <\/strong>
\n
\nPictured L – R TGEA Board Member Chris McCormick, Jamie, Executive Director Rev. Emma Chattin, Heather James<\/em>
\nRev. Emma spoke at a rally held on the steps of the Supreme Court on December 4.
\n The rally looked something like THIS <\/a>
\n “For we are powerful beings. That\u2019s why so many have denied us, oppressed us, and tried to suppress us. Because we reveal that the most fundamental thing about humanity- the very first thing that is said about us\u2026 is subject to change … and change is a frightening concept to some people.”<\/em>
\n ~ from Rev. Emma’s Speech on the Supreme Court steps.<\/small>
