Jessica and Chi are two moms living in Alabama with their seven-year-old daughter. They married in Connecticut last year, but their marriage is not recognized by the state where they live, work, and go to church. Watch them tell their story.
It’s amazing to me that this video even exists — that Freedom to Marry created it because there’s a real chance for marriage equality even in the deep South. I also love that the video shows the family in an obviously welcoming church. Religion has driven much anti-LGBT sentiment — but it doesn’t have to be that way.
