WHAT WILL THE AUDIENCE LEARN?
The audience will have an opportunity to listen in on a dynamic dialogue and discover how one community is choosing to dismantle racism as well as the laws that negatively impact the LGBTQIA community.
EPISODE SUMMARY:
November 23, 2022 marked the two year anniversary of Aidan Ellison's murder by Robert Keegan, a white man who shot him for playing his music too loud in a hotel parking lot. The murder shook some residents to the core and was/is a painful reminder of the value that some individuals place on people that are black. In the last several years, we have seen an uptick of hatred or blatant disregard towards people of color, the LGBTQIA community, and other marginalized groups across the country.
Join Rev. Dr. TLC and her guest Councilwoman Gina DeQuenne, the first openly queer black woman elected in southern Oregon, as they discuss how she has navigated the painful aftermath of Aidan's murder and the many anti-LGBTQIA laws that are on the books. They will also look at the intersectionality of race, sexuality, and gender.
