2021-10-06 Keep Your Bans Off My Identity

Jonny starts the show with a congratulations to the Rainbow Cafe which met its $15,000 fundraising goal with its annual gala over the weekend. He then turns to a series of related stories about attempts to ban basic rights associated with identity. First up, he reviews the weekend's Women's March in Carbondale and around the country, with its focus on fighting bans on abortion. He then turns to stories about the most banned books in 2020, a list still headed by a book about gender transition. He ends with a series of stories about attempts to ban the waving of the Pride flag.
