Out-FM co-host Naomi Brussel brings us the news and

Dr. Wilhelmina Perry wants New York to Remain “Open and …affirming”.

[Editorial] Dr. Wilhelmina Perry responds to Mayor Adams’ selection of known anti gay clergy for public positions in his administration.

Out-FM co-host John Riley interviews Professor Laurie Marhoefer of the University of Washington, who has written a book called "Sex and the Weimar: German Homosexual Emancipation and the Rise of the Nazis."  The book covers the period from the founding of the Weimar Republic in 1918 up through the rise of the Nazi’s to state power. In part one Marhoefer discussed the infamous paragraph 175, a sodomy law and the fightback of German gay men against it, she examines the state of the Trans community in that time period, and their strategy to end their oppression by the German state. It also recounts key battles and the alliances with reproductive rights movements of the day in the course of that struggle. In this Part 2 Marhoefer discusses the vibrant Lesbian Movement of the 1920s Weimar Germany. Marhoefer also discusses what can be learned from that era and the important similarities and differences our own era has with the Weimar Era in Germany.
