Broadcast – 17 May 2016
Every week, this show deals with LGBTI issues – sometimes very difficult or violent or uncomfortable – from all over the world. But we know sometimes you want to know what you can do to help.
Midsumma and the City of Melbourne co-hosted an event to talk about what Melbourne could do for our Sister City of St Petersburg under Russia’s anti-gay propaganda laws.
- What are the similarities between Russia and Australia’s treatment of minorities?
- Is Russia’s situation so different to many other countries?
- And from the other side of the globe, what can we do to help?
To unpack LGBTIQ life in St Petersburg, Russia, we bring you:
- a selection of voices from the St Petersburg Forum at the Melbourne Town Hall and
- an insider’s view from Sally Goldner, Executive Director of Transgender Victoria, who visited St Petersburg last year as a guest judge at their queer film festival.
