Program: The Iowa Journal #224
Broadcast Date: Apr. 23, 2009
In light of the current Iowa Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage, the history of Iowa's Constitution has taken center stage.
Supreme Court Justice Mark Cady, who wrote the unanimous marriage decision, at one point invoked the court’s first-ever decision, in 1839, which struck down slavery in the state.
The Iowa Journal will look at some of the civil rights decisions made early in Iowa's formative years.
