Vivek made his case with an exchange with an lgbtq activist at Iowa State Fair and its gone viral. I am personally pansexual, i was wondering your view on samesex couples is . I dont have a negative view in name of protecting tyranny of majority, we have in the name of majority created new tyranny of the mind and i think that is wrong. I dont think somebody religious should be forced to officiate a wedding they disagree with. I dont think a woman should be forced to compete against a biological man, i dont think anyone who is a woman should be forced to change clothes in a locker room with a man, that is not freedom, that is oppression.

Good evening. I am glad to be here with you for the first lecture in the Supreme Court Historical Societys series, this Supreme Court and the civil war revisited. The timing is just right, for this year marks the 150th anniversary of the war between the states. A bit about the society which i joined many years before i got this good job. And i remain among the legions of supporters of the societys many endeavors. Some of them dorothy mentioned. This society has been a key player in improving public understanding of the court and its role in the constitutional framework of our government. Regular attendees of these lectures know how engaging they have been. And i appreciate, too, Something Else dorothy mentioned.

[ applause ] thank you very much, mr. Goldman. I historians like me because, you know, every faculty, every respectable law faculty has a legal historian on it. But how important they are depends on how much you think the history behind the constitution or any other statute depends upon what was the understanding at the time. Which is what historians can tell us. So i use historians more than more people. And they like me more than most people, i think. Well, im happy to welcome all of you to this
