Debates over the civil unions bill have been heating up the Hawaii State Capitol lately. Opponents of the bill have been quite vocal in their disdain for the unions, with the voices of those in the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender (GLBT) community getting lost in the process. Luckily, the Equality Hawaii Foundation is putting a face on those affected by the bill and “expanding Hawaii’s definition of family,” in a photography exhibit that features nearly 20 GLBT Hawaii families. Surprise, surprise: many of the pictures show loving couples with happy children (and happy pets).
If this isn’t a typical Hawaii family, then really, what is?
Hawaii State Capitol, 415 S. Beretania St., through Sun 1/31, 8am–4:30pm, free, [equalityhawaii.org], 221-0799. Exhibit will also run through the month of February at Borders at Victoria Ward Center.
