President Obama, Cairo, Egypt: 2009

So long as our relationship is defined by our differences, we will empower those who sow hatred, rather than peace. Those who promote conflict rather than the cooperation that can help all of our people achieve justice and prosperity. And this cycle of suspicion and discord must end. 

Barack Obama, Cairo, Egypt : June 2009

And to think, this is their leader?

“Twenty-five, thirty years ago, the barometer of human rights in the United States were black people. That is no longer true. The barometer for judging the character of people in regard to human rights is now those who consider themselves gay, homosexual, or lesbian.” 

-Bayard Rustin, 1986

Interesting enough, Governor John Lynch signing bill into law.

“It’s about being recognized as whole people and whole citizens”

Correctomundo. And not letting our differences divide us.

“One thing that really troubles us is that Marion Barry said this would be a civil war,” Hardies said. “War is not the right way to talk about an issue that involves love.”

This topic sounds very familiar. Anybody ever heard of a tactic called ‘DIVIDE & CONQUER’? Plain as daylight. 

Spark Dialect was born out of a simple, 60 second video piece on the freedom to marry for all. During the process of creating the film we encountered a troubling experience that provoked us to bring the matter into a more public forum and reach out to others in order to examine social issues that are currently dividing us as citizens. We hope that this blog will reach many and inspire thought-provoking conversations about what is truly important in our human community.

To truly understand our goals and premise, please visit “The Scenario” for a detailed explanation of the situation that sparked this crusade, and visit, “Video” to see the final product.  

Then feel free to view “Commentary” for a message from the creators.
