Itzhak Perlman talks about why he opposes Prop 8

submitted by chilaxe

1 decade 5 years 11 months 1 week ago

Itzhak Perlman is an award-winning Israeli-American violin virtuoso, conductor, and teacher.

"Like so many parents, as our children grew up, we dreamed of their future knowing that the country I so proudly chose to call home would protect and ensure the rights of each of them, equally under the law... Prop 8 harms one of my children and my entire family."

See his violin insanity in action here: http://www.videosift.com/video/Itzhak-Perlman-Dance-of-the-Goblins

Well put. Prop 8 is Hate. I'm begging my fellow Californians to send a strong message to the religious conservatives who preach hatred instead of universal love, to join with me and enlightened thinkers such as Mr. Perlman, to reject the notion of "Separate but equal." "Separate but equal" was already proven to be a fallacy by the Supreme court - Separate inherently means unequal.

No to Hate. No on Eight.

Moving this video to chilaxe's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

Sending this video to Beggar's Canyon to plea for a little attention - beg requested by original submitter chilaxe.

Anyone who has heard his music, live in close company as I have, would have no trouble voting as he instructs. Virtuoso extraordinaire.

Stick to your horse hair, Itzhak. That's all we wanna hear.
