As part of their monthlong campaign to bring visibility to LGBT families, Family Equality Council, COLAGE, and PFLAG National have teamed up for the photo project "And Justice for All."
As the nation continues to wait for the Supreme Court decisions on DOMA and Prop 8, BuzzFeed is proud to salute these families who advocate in their own communities.
Rhode Island, The McShane-Jutras Family:
“We live in a society that espouses freedom and equal protections under the law, yet, through legislation and cultural attitudes, treats individuals and families as 'less than' depending on a variety of social factors and identities. Legal equality is important to us, because without it, social equity is impossible. Equality means there is a real chance that our son and daughter will grow up as fully visible and fully supported citizens of this country.”
