That's a curious definition of "freedom of association", being the right to ban certain classes of people from participation in social, business, educational or healthcare institutions. I can't recall anything about the Founding Fathers that said that after living under a monarchy that banned people from freely coming together as they chose, it was important to preserve the right of the powerful to dictate what the less powerful could or could not do both at home and outside.

Seems to me their intent was just the opposite, especially when you consider the addition of the equal protection clause in the amendments.
