The New Yorker Celebrates Obama’s Gay Marriage Endorsement

May 14, 2012 by Andy Towle

Newyorker

The cover for this week's issue by artist Bob Staake.

Writes Staake: “I am honored to be doing this cover. It’s a celebratory moment for our country, and that’s what I tried to capture. (I don’t especially like those rainbow colors, but they are what they are—I had to use them.) I wanted to celebrate the bravery of the President’s statement—a statement long overdue—but all the more appreciated in this political year. We are on the right side of history.”
