GAYSA Radio Live Where YOU Are Family
The National March on Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights Radio Documentary in FULL
This “audio scrapbook” of the first national LGBT march and rally in the U.S. capital on October 14, 1979, produced by “This Way Out” Coordinating Producer Greg Gordon and Associate Producer Lucia Chappelle, illuminates the problems and the passion of the first demonstration of its kind. As rich with the music and culture of the period as it is with the politics, the hour traces the event from the initial planning conference and some activists’ heartfelt and sometimes humorous cross-country trip to D.C. on a “Freedom Train” to the big day itself, and its coverage (or lack thereof) in the conventional media.
To help us continue to pursue the stories of significance in our community, consider joining our family of listener-donors today at thiswayout.org/donate.
Produced by Greg Gordon and Lucia Chappelle.
Music by Blue Dot Sessions (Jazzberry).
