“Married is a magic word,” Edith Windsor said in 2009. “And it is magic throughout the world. It has to do with our dignity as human beings, to be who we are openly.” Edith, the gay-rights activist whose same-sex marriage fight led to a landmark ruling, died yesterday in Manhattan. She was 88. The widow of a woman with whom she had lived much of her life, #EdithWindsor became the lead plaintiff in what is widely regarded as the 2nd most important Supreme Court ruling in the national battle over same-sex marriage rights. Her case struck down the Defense of Marriage Act in 2013 and granted same-sex married couples federal recognition for the first time. Edith became a national celebrity and a #gayrights matriarch. @cgregoryphoto took this picture of Edith gesturing to supporters on the steps of the #SupremeCourt building as justices were hearing her case in March 2013. Yesterday, @Barack Obama said in a statement that the day of the ruling was “a great day for America — a victory for human decency, equality, freedom and justice.”
