Marriage Equality USA: Interview with Edith Windsor (Part 1)

One year ago, Windsor v. United States became one of the most important court cases for the LGBT community. Since then, every single one of the 15 court cases striking down same-sex marriage bans has used the Windsor decision at the core of their legal decision.

All this began when a now famous Marriage Equality New York (now MEUSA) volunteer decided she wouldn’t take “no” for an answer.

In celebration of the one-year anniversary of the Windsor decision and in appreciation for all of your support for Edie, Thea, MENY, MEUSA and the entire marriage equality movement, today we launch our first in a series of intimate MEUSA interviews with Edie.

Watch Part 2 here.
