YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

We end today's show looking at another fight for civil rights in Alabamamarriage equality. On Monday, Alabama Attorney General Luther Strange asked a federal judge to keep legalizing samesex marriage in the state on hold until the U.S. Supreme Court rules later this year. Last month, Alabama became the 37th state to allow samesex marriage, but the Alabama Supreme Court directed probate judges to stop giving licenses to samesex couples. In Selma on Sunday, Amy Goodman spoke to Tori and Shanté WolfeSisson, the first samesex couple to marry in Montgomery, Alabama.
