Description
Whether you are using your voice or your pen, it is so important at this moment in time to be engaged to make a difference. Our guests this week show you how it’s done. First up, The Reverend Gil H. Caldwell and Marilyn Bennett, co-founders of Truth in Progress, stop by to chat about their new documentary “From Selma to Stonewall: Are We There Yet?” We cover everything from their incredible careers in activism to that ever-crowded intersection of faith, race and sexual orientation. Inspiring words here! Then, we’re joined by Lucas Grindley, editor in chief of The Advocate, to chat about what it’s like to be a journalist in this truly nutty time. Lucas gives us some tips on staying engaged, reaching an audience and getting our words out to the masses. All this and a brief bit of the latest LGBTQ news with Ken including Texas turmoil, Supreme Court surprises and political preparations. Download and listen in today!
