At Last, Marriage for New Paltz Activists

3 min - Jul 20, 2008
Mister SF Hank Donat, the first gay groom of San Francisco, and Robin Tyler (:44), the first lesbian bride of Los Angeles, attend the wedding of Jay Blotcher and Brook Garrett in LA on July 11, 2008. In February, 2004, Garrett and Blotcher took part in the New Paltz, NY weddings officiated by Mayor Jason West. Photos of the NY activists' wedding - #3 in New Paltz - appeared in international TV outlets and newswires. The New Paltz marriages were never legally recognized by the state of New York and were annulled in 2006. In 2008, New York Governor David Paterson directed state agencies to recognize lawful same-sex marriages performed in jurisdictions outside the state.

| Will and Right: Religion Politics and Gay Marriage - FULL |
Will and Right: Religion Politics and Gay Marriage - FULL
Darkstar225
33 min - Mar 23, 2007
On February 24th, 2004 President George W. Bush announced his support for a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage. Three days later in response to the President's words and inspired by events in Massachusetts, Village of New Paltz Mayor, Jason West, began solemnizing same-sex marriages in Upstate NY. Will & Right takes a deeper look into those fighting for equality and the effects it has on individuals, family values and the nation.
During the course of shooting this film we were able to meet so many interesting people; People working very hard to gain the same rights and freedoms that other Americans have. Actor/Activist Harvey Fierstein provided an interview as only he can, and many couples welcomed us into their homes to film first hand family life for gay/lesbian couples. Part of the film also captures history in the making as we document the 1st gay marriages in NY State at the Village of New Paltz, cover protests, speakers and the 2004 Pride Parade in NYC.
As religion takes a stronger role in American politics I think it is important that people get to see first hand how factoring prejudice into the US Constitution can effect real people, with real families and real love.
