Closer Look with Rose Scott

GLAAD Down South amplifying Southern LGBTQ voices; Coalition calls for change to officer pursuit policies; Emory grads on business, identity, and lifelong learning

GLAAD is the world’s largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) media advocacy organization. Last year, Darian Aaron, the director of Local News: U.S. South, founded GLAAD Down South to expand GLAAD’s work, specifically making sure accurate and inclusive narratives about LGBTQ Southerners and people living with HIV are told in the media. Arron joins “Closer Look,” to talk more about the upcoming 1st annual GLAAD Down South media event.

On April 14, a suspect allegedly ran a red light in the Little Five Points area while being pursued by Georgia State Patrol – that’s when 19-year-old Cooper Schoenke was reportedly struck and killed by Faduma Mohamed. The tragedy has moved a coalition of elected officials, physicians, and civil rights advocates to call for change from state authorities. State Representative for District 58 Park Cannon and Devin Barrington-Ward, the director of communications for the National Police Accountability Project, discuss this renewed effort.
