Edith Windsorov\u00e1, drobn\u00e1, ale nezdoln\u00e1 osobnost, se narodila v roce 1929. Jej\u00ed cesta jako aktivistky za pr\u00e1va homosexu\u00e1l\u016f za\u010dala milostn\u00fdm p\u0159\u00edb\u011bhem. V 60. letech, kdy\u017e pracovala jako program\u00e1torka v New Yorku, se sezn\u00e1mila s klinickou psycholo\u017ekou Theou Spyerovou. Jejich l\u00e1ska rozkvetla navzdory tehdej\u0161\u00edm spole\u010densk\u00fdm norm\u00e1m, kter\u00e9 se d\u00edvaly na homosexu\u00e1ln\u00ed vztahy s opovr\u017een\u00edm. <\/p>\n\n
Revolty ve Stonewallu v roce 1969 p\u0159edstavovaly pro Windsorovou a Spyerovou bod zlomu. Vy\u0161ly z anonymity, pochodovaly na p\u0159ehl\u00eddk\u00e1ch hrdosti a p\u0159ipojily se k organizac\u00edm LGBTQ. Windsorov\u00e1 ode\u0161la v roce 1975 z IBM do p\u0159ed\u010dasn\u00e9ho d\u016fchodu, aby se mohla v\u011bnovat aktivismu za pr\u00e1va homosexu\u00e1l\u016f.<\/p>\n\n
V roce 1977 byla u Spyerov\u00e9 diagnostikov\u00e1na roztrou\u0161en\u00e1 skler\u00f3za. Jak se jej\u00ed zdravotn\u00ed stav zhor\u0161oval, rozhodly se v roce 2007 odcestovat do kanadsk\u00e9ho Toronta, aby se vzaly. Kdy\u017e v\u0161ak Spyerov\u00e1 kr\u00e1tce pot\u00e9 zem\u0159ela, Windsorovou zas\u00e1hla zdrcuj\u00edc\u00ed r\u00e1na. Bylo j\u00ed ulo\u017eeno zaplatit 363 000 dolar\u016f na feder\u00e1ln\u00edch dan\u00edch z poz\u016fstalosti, co\u017e by ji ne\u010dekalo, kdyby byla vdan\u00e1 za mu\u017ee.<\/p>\n\n
Tato nespravedlnost p\u0159im\u011bla Windsorovou k tomu, aby napadla z\u00e1kon na obranu man\u017eelstv\u00ed (DOMA), z\u00e1kon, kter\u00fd odm\u00edtal homosexu\u00e1ln\u00edm p\u00e1r\u016fm feder\u00e1ln\u00ed uzn\u00e1n\u00ed jako man\u017eel\u016fm. Nejvy\u0161\u0161\u00ed soud rozhodl v roce 2013 v jej\u00ed prosp\u011bch a zru\u0161il DOMA v pr\u016flomov\u00e9m v\u00edt\u011bzstv\u00ed pro pr\u00e1va LGBTQ.<\/p>\n\n
A\u010dkoli rozhodnut\u00ed DOMA nestanovilo \u00fastavn\u00ed pr\u00e1vo na man\u017eelstv\u00ed osob stejn\u00e9ho pohlav\u00ed, otev\u0159elo cestu rozhodnut\u00ed Nejvy\u0161\u0161\u00edho soudu z roku 2015, kter\u00e9 legalizovalo man\u017eelstv\u00ed osob stejn\u00e9ho pohlav\u00ed v cel\u00e9 zemi. Windsorov\u00e9 ne\u00fanavn\u00e1 obhajoba sehr\u00e1la v tomto historick\u00e9m \u00fasp\u011bchu rozhoduj\u00edc\u00ed \u00falohu.<\/p>\n\n
Windsorov\u00e9 vliv dalece p\u0159es\u00e1hl soudn\u00ed s\u00ed\u0148. Stala se symbolem nad\u011bje a inspirace pro komunitu LGBTQ. Prezident Barack Obama j\u00ed pogratuloval k rozhodnut\u00ed DOMA a v roce 2013 byla finalistkou ankety \u010dasopisu TIME \u201eOsobnost roku\u201c.<\/p>\n\n
Man\u017eelstv\u00ed Windsorov\u00e9 se Spyerovou bylo d\u016fkazem jej\u00edho neochv\u011bjn\u00e9ho odhodl\u00e1n\u00ed pro l\u00e1sku a rovnost. Jejich p\u0159\u00edb\u011bh odolnosti a aktivismu nad\u00e1le inspiruje nespo\u010det dal\u0161\u00edch lid\u00ed. V pozd\u011bj\u0161\u00edch letech Windsorov\u00e1 vyj\u00e1d\u0159ila svou vd\u011b\u010dnost za obrovskou podporu, kter\u00e9 se j\u00ed dostalo: \u201eM\u011bla jsem milostn\u00fd pom\u011br s homosexu\u00e1ln\u00ed komunitou. Dostala jsem milion dopis\u016f. Mysl\u00edm, \u017ee Thea by to milovala.\u201c<\/p>\n\n
P\u0159\u00ednos Edith Windsorov\u00e9 hnut\u00ed za pr\u00e1va LGBTQ je nevy\u010d\u00edsliteln\u00fd. Jej\u00ed pr\u00e1vn\u00ed bitva proti DOMA, jej\u00ed podpora man\u017eelstv\u00ed osob stejn\u00e9ho pohlav\u00ed a jej\u00ed neochv\u011bjn\u00fd duch zanechaly trval\u00fd odkaz, kter\u00fd bude i nad\u00e1le inspirovat budouc\u00ed generace.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
