On this ep of The Informer, Ian Muchamore speak to the head of equality and non-discrimination at the Human Rights Office of the United Nations, Charles Radcliffe, and finds out how the UN is standing up for equal rights and fair treatment for lesbian, gay, bi, trans and intersex people everywhere.
Ruby Susan speaks to Noah Nicholson from Huffington Post Queer voices and looks at what is going on with the queer communities whose rights are slowly eroding and being slowly chipped away.
But first up, religion and marriage equality, it’s been one of the many issues at the forefront of the postal survey narrative in Australia over recent months, and last night, it took center stage on TV.
As we head towards the final countdown of the postal plebiscite, the marriage equality debate was the hot topic issue during last nights episode of Q&A on the ABC where actress and author Magda Szubanski, as the only LGBTI person on the panel, did us all proud.
But that wasn’t the only space in which religion and equality was being discussed. As the Australian Lesbian & Gay Archives hosted a panel on the History of Religious Activism.
So how different were the two discussions? We find out.
Dean Arcuri & Ruby Susan hosted this episode of The Informer on JOY 94.9
