AFFA is a social justice organization achieving
equality and acceptance for gay, lesbian, bisexual
and transgender people.
We're gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender persons and
straight allies uniting to eliminate prejudice based
on sexual orientation. We have over 1600 donor/members and

Charleston Rally for MARRIAGE
EQUALITY with Alliance For Full Acceptance
(AFFA) and our cosponsors on the steps of the US Custom
House—East Bay Street in Charleston.
We gather on the 48th anniversary of
the Selma march and on the eve of the Supreme Court
hearings about whether lesbian, gay, bisexual, and
transgender (LGBT) Americans should have the freedom to
marry. We are joining organizations in cities across the
nation to shine a light on the broad support for
marriage equality from coast to coast.
