No Pride in Genocide
Manage episode 416992833 series 3355462
Longtime queer rights activist Gary Kinsman resigned from Toronto Pride in April 2024 over their refusal to adequately address the genocide in Gaza. While telling his story to host Jessa McLean, Gary also provides a history of Pride, and its transition from a grassroots march to a corporately structured and funded cultural event.
Together with host Jessa McLean, they talk about the cost of that corporate funding, the event's continued collaboration with Police and how the Queer fight for liberation is tied to the liberation of all peoples, including that of Palestinians.
