Charles Koehler interviews Brad Graham from Queer Nation, a civil rights organization advocating for lesbian and gay rights. Queer Nation emphasizes visibility and education to challenge societal prejudices and discrimination. They aim to secure basic civil rights, such as employment and housing protections, which are not addressed by current federal or state laws. Recent actions include a high-visibility shopping event and a "sip-in" protest at a Cracker Barrel restaurant to highlight their discriminatory policies. The organization promotes non-violent direct action and aims to include all affected by discrimination, not just the LGBTQ+ community. Upcoming events include an informational session on the exclusion of LGBTQ+ rights from the Bill of Rights.
