Creigh Deeds for governor: Moving forward

On Nov. 3, voters will head to the polls and choose the next governor for the commonwealth of Virginia. For many, this might be the first time they have ever voted for this office. After last year’s historic election and record-breaking turnout, it might be hard for new voters in our generation to realize the importance of state elections here in the commonwealth.

Equal Rights Knows No Bounds

The chant filled the airwaves of the Capital building as the nations lawn went from a traditional green to a vibrant rainbow.

200,000 activists took to Washington this past Sunday, Oct. 11, to participate in the National Equality March. The goal of the march was to bring awareness to the lack of equal treatment being given towards the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) community and to demand civil rights protection from the federal government.
