    Born in 1929, Edith Windsor became a widow following the death of her wife, Clara Spyer in 2009. Edith Windsor was entitled to receive the entire estate left behind by Spyer in her will. Windsor attempted to claim the federal estate tax exemption for surviving spouses, however, due to section 3 of DOMA, the state of Internal Revenue Service failed to recognize the same-sex marriage as legitimate and ordered Windsor to pay estate taxes of $363,053 in order to receive the estate even though the state of New York had recognized the marriage as of 2008. If their marriage had been recognized by the IRS, Windsor would have qualified for the marital exemption and not had to pay any taxes to receive the property. Windsor filed a lawsuit against the federal government in 2012 claiming the lack of tax exemption due to the same-sex status of the marriage to be unconstitutional. The Supreme Court ruled a 5 to 4 ruling in favor of Windsor declaring section 3 of DOMA to be unconstitutional.…

    If the only way to save your life was to blame an innocent member in your community, would you? In The Crucible, Arthur Miller expresses the acts of finding a scapegoat through John Proctor and Reverend Hale juxtaposed to Abigail, the girls and some of the accused. Many of the accused “witches” admit to being a witch and save their own lives by offering the names of other witches in the community. If the accused claim they are not witches, they will be hanged for witchcraft, but if they confess and desire God’s forgiveness, their lives will be spared. “HALE: You have confessed yourself to witchcraft, and that speaks a wish to come to Heaven’s side. And we will bless you Tituba.” (Page 43).…
