June is known around the world as Pride Month. A moment of celebration for the LGBT+ community. However, a growing backlash towards queer people in recent months has dampened the excitement. Events in Tauranga and Greymouth have shocked the local community, while the US is being flooded with laws targeting gay and transgender people. So what has sparked this backlash, and what needs to be done to protect the rainbow community from violence? Today, Max Tweedie, director of Auckland Pride, joins Damien to discuss recent events and what needs to be done differently. Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
