PRIDE: Harvey Milk & Alan Turing

This Pride Month, we're revisiting one of our favorite episodes celebrating two men who changed history in very different ways.Anthony tells the story of Harvey Milk, the trailblazing politician who became one of the first openly gay elected officials in the United States and inspired a generation to step out of the shadows and into public life. His fight for visibility, equality, and representation would leave a lasting mark on the LGBTQ+ rights movement.Then Dana takes us through the remarkable and heartbreaking story of Alan Turing, the brilliant mathematician whose work helped win World War II, laid the foundation for modern computing, and ultimately changed the world. Despite his extraordinary contributions, Turing faced persecution simply for being who he was.From City Hall to codebreaking, from activism to innovation, this special Pride Month re-release honors two icons whose courage, brilliance, and sacrifices continue to shape the world we live in today.Because sometimes the people who change history aren't just fighting to be remembered — they're fighting to be allowed to exist.Caviar & Criminals is a true crime and pop culture podcast hosted by Anthony Kurtz & Dana Parisi.
