Queer Liberation March & Police Attacks On Protesters

On the 50th anniversary of the first Gay Pride march, organized by queer radicals and progressives, we'll talk with Jay Walker, one of the Black spokespeople of the multiracial Reclaim Pride Coalition . The Coalition has organized this year’s QUEER LIBERATION MARCH FOR BLACK LIVES AND AGAINST POLICE BRUTALITY, happening at the same time as our program. He’ll explain why this coalition -- forged in 2018 against commercialization and over-policing of the Pride march – decided to focus this year on Black Lives Matter. We'll also speak with Jason Rosenberg, a white ACT UP member who was one of many protesters attacked and injured by police following a June 2 Black Trans Matter street march.
