Hollingsworth v. Perry, the challenge to California's Proposition 8 will be argued today and United States v. Windsor, the case challenging the unjust Defense of Marriage Act, is scheduled Wednesday, March 27.
Events have been organized inside I-495 and in all 50 states to rally for marriage equality and the National Black Justice Coalition will be at the Supreme Court along with its United For Marriage coalition partners
The
NBJC team and volunteers will join a coalition of supporters of
marriage equality on the steps of the Supreme Court at 8:30 AM EDT on both days of the
hearings at 1 First St. NE in Washington, D.C.
NBJC Executive Director and CEO, Sharon Lettman-Hicks, will be addressing attendees at the Wednesday, March 27 rally.

Wear RED to show your solidarity!
Together we will stand up for our love and show the nation that
all Americans deserve to be treated fairly and equally under the law -
no matter who they love. All we need are five or more Supreme court justices to realize the same thing. NBJC asks that you spread the word on Twitter with the hashtag
#UnitedforMarriage.
For those of you in the Washington D.C. area or planning to hang out and watch history unfold, the nearest Washington Metro station is Union Station for the Red Line and Capitol South for the Blue and Orange lines. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring anything you'd need to be outside
