My conversation with Fred Hertz:
"To discover to the world something which deeply concerns it, and of which it was previously ignorant; to prove to it that it had been mistaken on some vital point of temporal or spiritual interest, is as important a service as a human being can render to his fellow creatures..." John Stuart Mill, "On Liberty"

Making it Legal
As the same-sex marriage and domestic partnership landscape changes almost daily, it has ushered in a whole new complex area of the law. The disparity between the states, the impact of DOMA on state law and even some federal agencies is inconsistent and dynamic. Frederick Hertz, the author of Making it Legal: A Guide to Same-Sex Marriage, Domestic Partnership & Civil Unions, lays out the complexities of the issues and exposes a whole new area of legal practice as well as a rocky road for those seeking simple legal rights
