Speak Now tells the story of a watershed trial that unfolded over twelve tense days in California in 2010. A trial that legalized same-sex marriage in our most populous state. A trial that interrogated the nature of marriage, the political status of gays and lesbians, the ideal circumstances for raising children, and the ability of direct democracy to protect fundamental rights. A trial that stands as the most potent argument for marriage equality this nation has ever seen.
In telling the story of Hollingsworth v. Perry, the groundbreaking federal lawsuit against Proposition 8, Kenji Yoshino has also written a paean to the vanishing civil trial--an oasis of rationality in what is often a decidedly uncivil debate. Above all, this book is a work of deep humanity, in which Yoshino brings abstract legal arguments to life by sharing his own story of finding love, marrying, and having children as a gay man.
Intellectually rigorous and profoundly compassionate, Speak Now will stand as the definitive account of a landmark civil-rights trial.
2009年,Perry v. Schwarzenegger作为保守主义回潮后LGBT群体的法律回击,向加州8号提案——修改加州宪法以将婚姻限制于一男一女之间发起合宪性的挑战。由此吉野贤治在对该例诉讼的梳理中展露出两层意义:基于婚姻权在法权意义上展开的政治实践与一场以法庭为场域的公众教育。就诉讼本身而言,8号提案在法律意义上被宣告违宪而废弃,实际上为全美同性婚姻合法化扫清了相当意义上的制度障碍。然而本案重要之处在于其不仅仅作为一项独立的诉讼或成为一项先例躺在case book之中,而是通过原告与被告双方专家证人对婚姻定义、婚姻价值、儿童权利等所延伸出的严肃讨论,让这样一种观念成为直面争论而培育或探求社会共识的关键一环:Let there be a trial.

评分这本书完完全全是写给毫无司法背景的普罗大众 的 结合他自身对于婚姻和庭审这两个重要的公民仪式的极大尊重和体会 看到后面难免觉得一些内容有点重复了 不过Yoshino教授一开始就很直白地表示了:我只想把我读这个几百页的记录的那种感动分享给大家 Yoshino教授真是个很细腻的人 很喜欢他讲他个人的小故事 不过这后面的extra libris部分真是画蛇添足啊 觉得自己像个小学生 读完了一本要写读后感的书
