New deadline and new prizes for Life Without Fair Courts Cartoon Contest

Please pass this around far and wide, especially to any cartoonists trying to get more exposure and recognition for their work. Aspiring, professional and college cartoonists 18 or older all welcome.

Lambda Legal’s Life Without Fair Courts
Editorial cartoon series and illustration contest

Deadline: April 16, 2007

Details:
Without fair courts unmarried people might not be able to buy condoms.
Without fair courts gay and lesbian people could be prosecuted for having sex in their own homes.
Without fair courts America's schools could still be segregated by law.

Lambda Legal’s “Life Without Fair Courts” alternate reality editorial cartoon series by artist Mikhaela Reid depicts what life would be like if courts had not upheld the Constitution in past landmark cases. Check out the first four in the series on our site and in The Advocate.

Get involved by showing us what this country might be like without fair courts and landmark civil rights cases, or by depicting discrimination still going on today against LGBT people or other groups.

Lambda Legal has teamed up with Prism Comics and media sponsor, The Advocate, to present the Life Without Fair Courts Illustration Contest. Submit your entry between January 16 and April 16, 2007 to faircourtscontest@lambdalegal.org for a chance to win nationwide exposure of your work or gift certificates to the comic book store of your choice.

By the way, here are my two latest cartoons for Lambda Legal's Life Without Fair Courts series, "Brown v. Board of Ed" and Craig v. Boren. (Click images to enlarge for readability).
