Elizabeth's book Before I Do: A Legal Guide to Marriage, Gay and Otherwise, has been included in The New Press's reading list of essential LGBTQ books:
"Over the last few years we've seen a rise in attacks targeting communities, classrooms, cultural spaces, and more in school districts, cities, and states across the country. These attacks are made through legislation, bans, and the rewriting of curriculum that seek to dehumanize minority groups and skew the telling of history—from bills that criminalize gender-affirming care to attempts to censor the teaching of history to a shocking increase in book bans. In the face of this censorship and attempts to restrict dialogue and scholarship, we're naming the issues, saying them out loud, and sharing a series of reading lists that provide a deep dive into topics that are in the spotlight.
From photobooks celebrating the rich diversity of the queer community and anthologies documenting the legacy of Black Lesbian writers to conversations with legal experts involved in the policies and laws affecting LGBTQ communities, explore The New Press's reading guide for understanding and honoring the vibrant history and ongoing work of LGBTQ activism.
