Equality supporters from across the mid-Atlantic have been waiting for the opportunity to participate in this important campaign. The fight against Proposition 8 affects the whole

The NOH8 Campaign is a photographic silent protest created by celebrity photographer
Adam Bouska (http://www.bouska.net) and partner Jeff Parshley in direct response to the
passage of Proposition 8. Photos feature subjects with duct tape over their mouths,
symbolizing their voices being silenced by Prop 8 and similar legislation around the
world, with "NOH8" painted on one cheek in protest. For more information regarding the
