On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: all aren’t welcome.
Pride Month festivities have a complicated legacy. On the one hand, being out, proud and supportive in public has been a game-changing force for the LGBTQ+ community; on the other hand, pride began as a protest, and the movement has been, and is, at odds with the status quo and acceptability politics.
So, should uniformed cops be welcome at Pride? Should politicians like Jill Biden be invited, or encouraged, to make Pride a campaign stop?
Jessie Sage, a Pittsburgh-based columnist and sex worker, joins us to argue: no.
