A few thousand people turned up to protest againt the homophobic violence this afternoon and then marched up Oxford street.
It was certainly a sight to see all the pink Australian flags waving around!
The very talented Shauna Jensen and Diva in training Courtney Act performed Proud as the finale of the vigil, which I must say as truly inspired and moving choice!
My only disapointment was that we didn't close down Oxford street and make a real statement, but I feel that in a small way things will change for the better. It's all just baby steps.
