Marriage Equality - South Africa by Aric Olnes. The Republic of South Africa was the 5th country in the world to legalize Marriage Equality. Their motto is "Unity in Diversity." The King Protea is the national flower and I drew the king protea in the poster myself.
Marriage Equality – South Africa
The Republic of South Africa, the land of Nelson Mandela, was the 5th country in the world to legalize Marriage Equality. Their motto is "Unity in Diversity." The King Protea is the national flower and I drew the king protea in the poster myself. Here is my tribute to South Africa's early recognition of Marriage Equality on November 30, 2006.
