This week on Open Late, Jess interviews Andre Lazarus to get his perspective on presenting men in society. The conversation goes deep and wide as they talk about Andre's challenges while serving in the military. He spoke about how "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" was repealed, allowing us to see more individuals feeling more comfortable. Unfortunately, the policy created a culture of fear that made it difficult for many people to live openly or honestly. But when did we stop being afraid? When did we start taking steps toward equality?
