Queering Our Way to a Liberated Future with Kelley Robinson

Even though Pride Month is a time to celebrate queer love, it’s also a time to double down on LGBTQ+ activism and progressive policy change. The work is far from over. Human Rights Campaign President, Kelley Robinson, comes on the show to discuss her leadership of the organization one year after declaring a state of emergency for LGBTQ+ people in the United States. She explains why LGBTQ+ rights are a critical voting issue and how allies and activists alike can queer their way toward progress.Follow Kelley Robinson on Instagram @kelleyjrobinsonFollow The 19th on Instagram, Facebook, X and via our newsletters. Follow Errin Haines on Instagram @emarvelous and X @errinhaines.Follow Wonder Media Network on Instagram @wmn.media, X @wmnmedia, and Facebook.

This election year, our democracy hangs in the balance. We need news coverage that cuts past punditry and gives a voice to the new electorate – the marginalized folks that depend on a functioning democracy. Enter: The Amendment, a new podcast about gender, politics and power from The 19th News and Wonder Media Network, hosted by award-winning journalist and 19th editor-at-large Errin Haines. Each week, Errin sits down with people who have fresh perspectives on the state of our country – and asks questions that center the voices of women, queer folks, and people of color. The Amendment adds much needed asterisks to America’s most pressing political conversations – and gets clear on the unfinished work of our democracy.  Hosted on Acast.
