The Better Together Conference saw the many different parts of our communities come   to explore what we need to start working towards to unify the collective letters under our rainbow.

Is that something we can, or even want to do or achieve?

In order to look to our future we have to look to our past, and instead of placing blame, look for how our history can help us in the fights our communities are not ready for on the horizon.

We were at the Conference last week and we now hear from Jason Tuazon McCheyne and Jamie Gardiner as the torch is passed from the gay conferences of last century, to the LGTBIQ dialouges of the future.

This segment aired on The Informer on JOY 94.9 on 16th January 2017
