Remembering Gay Rights Leader Frank Kameny
from The 7th Avenue Project · host Robert Pollie
I was saddened to learn this past week that gay rights pioneer Frank Kameny had died. For today's show I replayed my 2010 interview with Frank, in which he looked back on his life as an activist. This is a somewhat longer cut of the original 2010 broadcast. In part 2 of the show, more on the subject of political activism and the sacrifices it sometimes calls for: an excerpt from a 2009 interview with former track star John Carlos, who talks about the famous black power salute he and fellow medalist Tommy Smith gave at the 1968 Olympic Games.
