Boutilier v. INS and National Gay Task Force v. BOE, Ok City
Today we talk about 3 court cases: Boutilier v. Immigration and Naturalization Service, National Gay Task Force v. Board of Education, Oklahoma City, and Boy Scouts v. Dale. All three cases were blows to queer rights. We also discuss McCarthyism and its impact on queer people as well as parallels between Joseph McCarthy and a certain other modern politician.
