On today's episode of So to Speak: The Free Speech Podcast, we speak with Rutgers Law School Professor Carlos Ball about his book, "The First Amendment and LGBT Equality: A Contentious History."
During this conversation, we explore the history of how LGBT activists utilized the First Amendment to secure their rights, why Professor Ball considers that history "contentious," and how debates surrounding liberty and equality have roiled America for over a century and continue to drive conversations about LGBT rights today.
