Iowan activists try to marry in Iowa City
Thirty-nine same-sex couples gathered at the County courthouse in Iowa City, Iowa, trying to get marriage licenses. Organizers only expected about a dozen couples, but the numbers of people rallying went over a hundred. Each couple was denied, but many people saw the denial as part of the process to eventually receive valid licenses. The group made their point visible to the larger public and stressed the inherent discrimination in the system.
