This Way Out (LGBT)
This Way Out leads off each week with NewsWrap, a summary of some of the major news events in or affecting the lesbian/gay community, compiled from a variety of publications and broadcasts around the world.
This week on This Way Out:
Green and lavender clash again in New York City; can U.S. science save Uganda from the sin of homophobia? Some parting words from the notorious (and now late) Fred (“God Hates Fags”) Phelps; competing family factions face off in Taipei’s Freedom Square, Gibraltar rocks civil partnerships, Australia’s largest “ex-gay” group exits, an Idaho anti-bias advocate comes out of a closet, and more global LGBT news.
Featured speakers/guests:
The now late Rev. Fred Phelps, Sr.; Stephanie Mott of the Kansas Statewide Transgender Education Project; professional U.S. homophobe Scott Lively; Ugandan President Yoweri Musevini.
