Inside Story Americas - A major victory for gay equality?

  • 11 years ago
As the US Supreme Court has handed down major civil rights rulings, we analyse the impact on equality in the US. So was it a wise decision to struck down key parts of the Voting Rights Act? Is the US redefining their civil rights? And what do these decisions mean for equality in the US? To discuss this, Inside Story Americas, with presenter Shihab Rattansi, are guests: Spencer Overton; a law professor at George Washington University and author of the book Stealing Democracy: The New Politics of Voter Suppression; Bruce Fien, a constitutional lawyer and the former US Associate Deputy Attorney General under President Ronald Reagan; and Paul Campos, a law professor at the University of Colorado Boulder.
