Get Busy. Get Equal. That is what I’m reading and hearing from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Last week, they launched their new program entitled “Get Busy. Get Equal.” as part of their LGBT Project. It’s an “online toolkit” for the activist community that doesn’t have much experience in organizing. Its creation spun out of an incident in Arkansas where a couple locals decided that their town needed a domestic partner registry. As they state in their release about the program’s launch, “people who stood up to the New York City police at Stonewall to the students at BOYD COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL IN EASTERN KENTUCKY who persisted until they were allowed to form a Gay-Straight Alliance in their school” are what local organizing is all about. Checkout this new online toolkit.
