Thank you Jim Obergefell for sharing your inspiring story of love with us. We applaud you and appreciate your willingness to fight for what is right. You made the world better for countless LGBTQ+ people whose marriages are now legally recognized no matter where they live in the U.S. We loved your advice to 1.) Vote in every single election, 2.) Use our voice to promote and defend equality, 3.) Support organizations committed to equality, and 4.) Tell our own stories to inspire others. It was an honor and a privilege to have you as our Pride Month speaker! #PrideMonth #WinstonDiversity
Thank you for sharing your story, Jim Obergefell. You took us beyond what we’ve read in the Supreme Court decision, news stories, and your book to understand the raw emotions you felt at each moment in your journey. You and John made history and, as lawyers who believe in equality for all, we’ll keep fighting to protect those rights with our every breathe. #LoveWins #HappyPride
I had such a great time, thank you for inviting me to be part of your Pride celebrations!
Thank you Jim Obergefell for sharing this with us on both sides of the Atlantic 🙏 We felt very privileged to hear this journey, both personal and « political », directly from one of the trailblazers. And thank for sharing these moments of your life with your spouse. A lot of non-US lawyers and staff members joined the event which resonates outside of the United States. I wish your advices were not still so relevant in 2024, whether in France, in the States or in other countries. Unfortunately they are, and milestones like this victory can be legally challenged more quickly than we think. Special thanks to David Sakowitz and the #WinstonDiversity team for organizing and hosting the event 👏 Happy #PrideMonth
This was such a great presentation! I am so grateful I had the chance to attend and hear such inspiring words during pride month!
well as you see this is merely a gay entertainment magazine, but for Pride this year, the subject will be the "Pluto 100 Club feat. Don Lemon, Cyril Vanier, Judith Williams, and Lora Lavigne WRAL".... Jim Obergefell

3moJim Obergefell is an author, activist, and talented storyteller. I could have listened to him for hours. I loved all of the insights and background he provided about the case, his life with John, and all of the people involved in the case. I encourage everyone to read his book, Love Wins, and invite Jim to come to your organization to speak. Thanks to Keppler Speakers Bureau for facilitating the program with Jim. #lovewins
