Summary: | Two of them are a rainbow flag, and others have signs that read, "Love Will Win in Alabama!" and "Honk for Equality." Keith Ingram is in the foreground, addressing the group with a bullhorn. 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. (Ingram and his partner, Albert Pigg, had been denied a license several times; they were eventually married on July 22, 2015.) |
