Victory

Supreme Court lawyer and political pundit Linda Hirshman details the stunning story of how a resourceful and dedicated minority transformed the notion of American marriage equality and forged a campaign for cultural change that will serve as a model for all future political movements. In the vein of Taylor Branch's classic <em>Parting of the Waters</em> Hirshman's groundbreaking <em>Victory: The Triumphant Gay Revolution </em>is the powerful story of a massive shift in American culture. Hirshman offers an insider's view of the crucial struggle that is leading to change incorporating her unique experiences and insights and drawing upon new interviews--with movement titans such as Frank Kameny and Phyllis Lyon with next-generation activists such as Evan Wolfson of Freedom to Marry and with allies including the likes of New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand--to create a comprehensive inspiring history of change in our time.<br />
