- 1. + I found a website on the legalization of same-sex marriage! BY: Mariah Whiteman
- 2. + What’s the point, Evan Wolfson?
- 3. + What is the authors goal? The author’s main goal of this website is to win over more states to legalize same-sex marriage. The author of the website has set up a place on a webpage where donations are accepted to keep this organization funded and to spread the word of legalizing same-sex marriage across America. Facts from the author: • Using Loving as a measure, we are doing well, having moved from just about a quarter of public support 15 years ago to above majority support today – far better than the 70% of Americans who opposed interracial marriage in 1967. • Moving forward, Freedom to Marry will continue to increase and diversify the national support for marriage, leading the way in efforts to change hearts and minds through powerful messengers and groundbreaking research with the new goal of getting public support for the freedom to marry over 60% by 2016.
- 4. + I found another website on the legalization of same-sex marriage! WEBSITE NUMBER TWO!
- 5. + What’s the point? http://www.rainbowrumpus.org/abou t/staff
- 6. + Conclusion… I think that the first website was very factual and informative. It provided a lot of statistical research and evidence, while also encouraging the point of the website in a way that entices the readers.
- 7. + Future Research… What are the main issues holding the states back from legalizing same-sex marriage? Will there come a time when same-sex marriage is legal across the United States? What are the statistics of same-sex couples staying married to one another as opposed to opposite-sex couples?
