This T-shirt was produced as part of the campaign for marriage equality in South Africa. The campaign, spearheaded by the Lesbian & Gay Equality Project (LGEP), successfully culminated in the passing of the Civil Union Act on 30 November 2006, making South Africa the first country on the continent to legalise same-sex marriage.
