Gay USA: Year End Wrap-Up

This week you’ll find yours truly on the year-end episode of Gay USA, the nationally broadcast weekly LGBT news show hosted by Ann Northrop and Andy Humm.

Happy New Year! On this week’s show, Ann leads an end-of-the-year roundtable discussion of 2009’s events and issues. Our guests are Joe Jervis, author of the JoeMyGod.com blog; Pauline Park, veteran transgender activist and chair of the New York Association for Gender Rights Advocacy; and longtime gay and civil liberties activist Bill Dobbs. The panel discusses the scary implications of the Uganda anti-homosexuality bill and its evangelical authors, the sins of out LGBT politicians, the political usefulness of blogging, and the role of the fight for marriage equality in a larger liberation movement, among other topics.
