For anyone who missed the Meet in the Middle festivities for equality in Fresno, CA on May 30th, here are some photos from the rally and behind the scenes. Over 5,000 people came to show their support for marriage equality and help kick-off the start of a national campaign for full equality of all kinds. Some of your favorite stars from Hollywood were there, including Charlize Theron and her mother, Eric McCormack from Will & Grace, Michelle Clunie from Queer as Folk, Milk's Dustin Lance Black and Cleve Jones, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy's Kyan, T.R. Knight, and many more!
In addition to the live video feed we provided, we were keeping busy doing interviews backstage with many of the speakers and organizers of the event. Check back soon for those great interviews!
