Edith “Edie” Windsor and Thea Spyer shared a life for 44 years. They were married in Canada – and that word, “marriage,” made a difference for them.
The ACLU has a beautiful video about their lives, narrated by Windsor – Spyer passed away in 2009. Windsor, a New Yorker, is one of those who is challenging the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act.
Videos like these remind us what we’re fighting for when protest or call or talk to family and friends or vote;or when we wait outside the state senate chambers for hours and hours as our legislators decide whether even to bring a marriage equality vote to the floor. Take a look, below.
