Newsom: Separate Is not equal

San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom on separate-but-equal for the gays
(Video: FORA.tv, via YouTube)

Last 11 March, San Francisco’s mayor, Gavin Newsom, gave a talk at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. The clip above is an excerpt, in which the mayor questions the validity of separate-but-equal thinking — as applied to marriage equality. Love him or hate him, he’s right and consistent on this issue.

  1. Connecticut has the right idea. Fight back against the unbridled abuse of power by religious leaders. Imagine a bill like Conn Raised Bill 1098 in every state in the union. Checks and balances on the absolute power of Catholic Bishops.
