this is what the inside of the arab world's first lgbt radio station looks like.sexuality is illegal in tunisia. it is punishable by illegal in tunisia. it is punishable byup illegal in tunisia. it is punishable by up to three years in prison and was only last year that government said it would only stop forced banal examinations of people suspected of homosexuality. since 2011, people have been free to express themselves however they like but for many tunisians, even discussion of lgbt issuesis tunisians, even discussion of lgbt issues is offensive and he has received abuse since the station went to air. i have had 4700 hate m essa 9 es went to air. i have had 4700 hate messages and messages of abuse. but it hasn't put him off. we believe in this project as a way to create awareness. it was important to keep broadcasting —— broadcasting and that would have been unthinkable a few years ago in tunisia but the social issues it's addressing and the challenges it is making for traditional religious norms are part ofa traditional religious norms are part of a wider reg

it's like a historical arc of the lgbt history through the past 12 decades.nd of stories that are lesser known, but about very strong and resilient people who we hope will inspire more like them. robert: can you give us a couple of examples? vinney: yeah, there's a song called "sylvia." amed sylvia rivera. and she was one of the leaders of the--at the stonewall riot in 1969. and that was back in a time when transgender wasn't even a word that was used in common language. and it was even a time when transgender folks weren't fully embraced by the gay movement or the women's liberation movement either. and to have someone like sylvia rivera represented in this story, in this musical, we hope that it'll inspire more people like her. robert: isn't it the musical format also helps, doesn't it? i mean, in terms of like introducing ideas or introducing things, it just seems to be people kind of accept it that way. erick: and that's something groundbreaking also with this particular show. it's just--it's not just a chorus singing, we have four lead actors, really goo

by no means is suicide a problem exclusive to the lgbt community. in one way or another this public health crisis has affected all americans regardless of color, class, or creed. over the last two decades, the suicide epidemic has taken tens of thousands of lives with suicide rates rising by as much as 30% across the country. the severity of this public health crisis was thrown into sharp relief last week with the tragic deaths of kate spade and anthony bourdain. in utah, the statistics are particularly alarming, every 14 there is a suicide resulting in an average of 630 deaths each year. the problem is so acute that utah now has the fifth highest suicide rate in the nation. in addressing this topic today, my heart is both heavy and hopeful. heavy because suicide has already taken so many lives, hopeful because i believe we are on the cusp of a major legislative breakthrough that could turn the tide in the campaign against this epidemic. as some of you may recall, i joined senator joe donnelly last year in introducing the national suicide hotline im

a third of the lgbt community didn't want gay marriage, too traditional.don't want to be like the straight community and a third of the community says we don't care about it, just give us civil unions, something with a legal right to visit our partner and then another chance of the community that says let's go for full marriage. there was a lot of infighting in their field and that strategy enabled each segment to work at what they want to work at, getting rid of discriminatory laws, you could do that. a big tent coalition if you will and all the movements had a similar way to do that. lots of good juicy details if you want to go into that chapter. in a great quote from one of the leaders of a winning movement from the tobacco control movement, that took steps forward in the global settlement agreement, tobacco companies which imploded and took a step back and it wasn't until the family medical leave act that you got much of the agenda past, this is a movement -- every group that i speak to have similar stories. the last practice in the book, the leadershi

he has not been as good a friend of workers in as the lgbt movement and community i don't think that means things won't get worse. [laughter] and just to take janus in the union context, there are more steps we should be concerned about that this is a compelled speech unconstitutional under the amendment and now cases are pending that challenge the very idea of exclusive representation as compelled association under the first amendment so it is just a system of bargaining we have had 1975 51% of workers of workers have everybody covered by the contract. that is now susceptible to attack the first amendment. they make is that both public and private? great. another problem is that janus applies to the public sector because it is a constitutional holding. i think there will be an effort to extort janus to the private sector that will happen in congress that also in the court. you might think that's crazy he have the requirement of the state action and there is no action when they decide to negotiate collective bargaining agreements but i am more worried about the prospect of erosion of

i think that my organization, because we are conservative group that does advocate for lgbt issues, ihink that a lot of people end up wondering if we are working on other social issues, and how we feel about these other things. i have to tell you, this is something i'm not an expert on. but i do think that here, it's important to take a full and consistent pro-life position. it wasn't until the last year that our government began to detain pregnant undocumented women. i think that at the core of this, we are detaining pregnant undocumented women. we should reverse that policy. i think the most pro-life thing that we could do right now and this has been advocated by the catholic bishops, southern baptist convention, we should not be detaining pregnant women, and we wouldn't have this problem to begin with. >> shannon: tony kim a part of the problem that stems from these cases, these are minors, in many cases, this leads officials with no other choice. your reaction? >> first off, i commend the department of justice, we've been working with them on this. they were working very diligentl

of course, justice kennedy has been a tremendous champion of lgbt equality. he has been at the forefront of the court's trajectory in recognizing the equal dignity and really the common humanity of what it means to be lgbt. and of course, from that perspective, it's devastating to lose him on the court. i think his journey reflects the journey that our nation has made in the past several years and perhaps decades towards recognizing what it means to be lgbt, what it means to be gay and lesbian and transgender, and those advances are not released by his departure from the court. in some sense, in the very next term, the thing the next issue will not be one of constitutional, but in the establishatory context, and that's the federal government and 60% of states still don't have laws that expressly prohibit discrimination based on sexual discrimination and gender identity the way colorado does. what we have are laws that discriminate based on sex. there's been a growing consensus that sex discrimination includes discrimination against somebody because of their s
