we do, too: apis and the marriage equality debate

Being Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, there's a ton of stuff going on... Hard to keep track! This week, the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles presents a panel of experts to discuss the historical, political, religious and legal implications of the debate on equal marriage rights for lesbians and gay men, featuring award-winning author/activist Helen Zia; Reverend Mark M. Nakagawa, senior minister of Centenary United Methodist Church in Little Tokyo; actor James Sie; attorney Karin Wang of the Asian Pacific American Legal Center; with welcoming remarks from Sulu himself, George Takei, Chair Emeritus of the JANM Board of Trustees. Thursday, May 17, 2007 7:00pm at the National Center for the Preservation of Democracy. For more information about the event, download this PDF. Should be a very interesting discussion.
