The Road To LGBT Equality Won't End At The Supreme Court

The Road To LGBT Equality Won't End At The Supreme Court

If the Supreme Court rules in favor of marriage equality this summer, is there a concern in the LGBT activist community that suddenly, the momentum for full equality might flag? That is just one topic that the most recent "Drinking & Talking" panel took up in earnest.

The Huffington Post's own Jen Bendery joined three members of the gay community -- former Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.), Victory Fund CEO Aisha Moodie-Mills, and Robert Traynham, a former press secretary for likely GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum -- for a wide-ranging discussion on how far the LGBT community has come over the years, hosted by HuffPost's Sam Stein.

As Moodie-Mills noted, it is a grave concern: "We can go and all get married -- and that's all great and fine -- and go to work the next day, put a picture of our spouse on our desk, and be fired, just because we're gay."
