40 Years After Stonewall

The riots at the Stonewall Inn in New York City's Greenwich Village were a key moment that galvanized the modern gay and lesbian rights movement. We talk with author David Carter, who's written about the pivotal moment 40 years ago, and leaders of this region's gay community. We'll discuss their frustrations with Obama Administration policies toward the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities, including the continued enforcement of the military's "Don't Ask; Don't Tell" program.
Guests Include: David Carter, author of "Stonewall: The Riots that Sparked the Gay Revolution"
Jennifer Bolton, Vice President of the Gay and Lesbian Community of Southern Nevada
Jeff Garofalo, Local Co-chair of the Human Rights Campaign
