Well at least it’s a fruit pie. The original poor innocent cancelled free speech warrior Anita Bryant, the movement, and the myth. The story of how a hateful bigot galvanized two opposite movements and gay people stopped drinking orange juice.
There will be a one week break between episodes to put together some fascinating new projects.
