| Summary: | Several of them are wearing Colgay Pride T-shirts; Albert Pigg (front center) is helping to carry an "Equality" banner, and two other marchers are holding a rainbow flag. Equality Wiregrass, an LGBTQ advocacy group based in Dothan, held the event to encourage Judge Patrick Davenport to issue marriage licenses for all Houston County citizens. The demonstration began with a rally at the county probate office, followed by a march to Poplar Head Park. (Pigg and his partner, Keith Ingram, had been denied a license several times; they were eventually married on July 22, 2015.) |
