A Celebration of Marriage Equality for All Americans
The United States Supreme Court Decision ruled that same-sex couples are free to marry. This beautiful video celebrates the landslide victory in the name of love and equality.
On June 26, 2015, the United States Supreme Court ruled that same-sex couples are free to marry nationwide. The landmark ruling, which gives individuals the constitutional right to be married equally under the law, has taken decades of advocacy and legal work to achieve.
This moving video by YouTube is a compilation of clips that show young people coming out publicly, celebs like Ellen DeGeneres and Laverne Cox speaking of self-acceptance and snippets of press conferences demanding the need for equal marriage. The video culminates in a series of beautiful proposals and marriages between same-sex couples - showing that love and equality are not up for debate.
Justice Anthony Kennedy who presided over the recent Supreme Court precedent said it best when he wrote, “No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than they once were." We couldn’t agree more.
