Beyond Gay Marriage, a look at the mainstreaming of the Gay Movement
by Lisa Dettmer Thursday Jun 10th, 2010 3:38 PM
This new radio documentary , "Beyond Gay Marriage" looks at the Gay Marriage movement and asks Why is gay marriage the primary issue of the Gay Community ?, Is it really the issue most Queers are interested in ?, And what effect does the funding and emphasis on Gay Marriage have on displacing other crucial gay issues ? This documentary presents the voices of Queer scholars and activists seldom heard in the media who provide a cutting edge critique of the "Gay Marriage" movement and the mainstreaming of gay politics and looks at what progressive Queers are working on instead. This documentary provides a unique critque you will not hear often in the media yet it is a critque that is supported by many in the LGBT community.
