Hi, I'm Marc, producer of the podcast.
Happy Pride Month!
We wanted to share a favorite episode from the archives that we first ran to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Stonewall.
Just as a note, Richard Cardillo's story mentions the effects of suicide on a loved one.
Stay tuned next week for an all-new episode about pride and family.
Until then, enjoy!
Welcome to the Marth Podcast!
I'm your host, Dane Wilburn.
This week,
we're celebrating Pride Month and the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising,
and we wanted to do it right.
In the planning of this episode,
we recognized how the story of Stonewall has historically been shaped to exclude many voices and perspectives.
So today, we're hoping to help create a fuller picture.
We have two month stories and two interviews that we hope will add to your understanding of Stonewall 50.
You'll hear from Martin Boyce, who was at Stonewall on the day of the riot.
And at the very end of the episode, we'll hear from Kay Barrett,
a poet and activist continuing the fight for LGBTQ plus rights today.
We talked with Martin Boyce in the park on Christopher Street,
just across the street from Stonewall.
