Sunday 17th May - International Day Against Homophobia

On today's program I was joined by Scott Davis from the Gay and Lesbian Liaison Officers at Victoria Police. Scott is a passionate advocate not only for our community but for local musicians as well. He has a sensational music collection and we had so much fun this week that we'll be doing it all again in a fortnight! This week we played songs of human rights, social justice and anti-discrimination. 

We aired an interview between Scott Davis and Brett Parsons, of the Washington DC Police Department, head of their Gay and Lesbian Liaison Unit.
