Marc Solomon, national campaign director for Freedom to Marry, visited Google's office in Cambridge, MA to discuss his book "Winning Marriage: The Inside Story of How Same-Sex Couples Took on the Politicians and Pundits - and Won".
As recently as 2004, gay marriage was legal nowhere, few politicians supported it, and voters lacked enthusiasm for it. In his new book, one of the movement’s leaders, Marc Solomon, reveals the inner workings of the advocacy movement that has championed and protected advances won in legislative, court, and electoral battles over the decade since the landmark Massachusetts ruling guaranteeing marriage for same-sex couples for the first time.
Marc Solomon is the national campaign director for Freedom to Marry, a non-profit advocacy organization founded in 2003 that campaigns for the right of same-sex couples to marry in the United States. He directs all the organization’s programs to win marriage nationwide, overseeing a staff of more than 30. In thirteen years of work on marriage equality, he has led the campaign to protect marriage in numerous states.
