Grammys promote homosexual equality and acceptance
The music industry is stepping up and promoting same sex marriage and equality. The Grammys hosted a performance by Macklemore of his popular song "Same Love," a song addressing the need for homosexual acceptance. During the performance 34 couple of different races, ethnicities, and sexual preferences were married by Queen Latifah. This is huge because of the huge influence music has on popular opinion. Even though not everyone agrees with who won which category the important thing is the progression of pro-gay acceptance.

Macklemore taught everyone watching that no matter you sexual preference, race, or ethnicity we're all people who are all equals

I think it's very important to notice the change that the music industry can have on the controversial topic of gay marriage.

These actions speak for itself, they are no longer in fear and are fighting for their rights.
