On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear arguments on Proposition 8, California’s voter-approved 2008 ban on same-sex marriage. The following day, the high court will take up the Defense of Marriage Act, which denies federal benefits to legally married same-sex couples. We’ll preview the historic hearings.

Guests:

Scott Shafer, reporter and host of KQED's The California Report

David Levine, law professor at UC Hastings
