DOMA-Slayer Roberta Kaplan!

This week on This Way Out:

Kaplan discusses her own coming out story, the love story of Edith Windsor and Thea Spyer, upon which the case was based, and the legal and social implications of the ruling that paved the way for this year’s high court marriage equality decision!
