YOUNG VOICES

Is the Same-Sex Marriage Battle a Civil Rights Struggle?
by Tamika Thompson


 

As California's Proposition 8 fight continues, I thought it might be worth it to talk to a couple of experts about a question that I've run across while covering the Prop. 8 challenge: Is the same-sex marriage battle a civil rights struggle reminiscent of the 1960s civil rights movement?

Hear what a civil rights law expert and sociology professor have to say about it.
