Yasmin Nair, The Real News, June 26, 2015

This comes just in time for the weekend’s festivities. Gay pride parades will take place this weekend in cities like San Francisco and New York.But is it all rainbows from here for the queer community in America? Now joining us from Chicago to unpack this is Yasmin Nair. Yasmin’s a writer, an academic, and an activist. She’s a member of Gender Just, a radical queer grassroots organization, and a co-founder of the editorial collective Against Equality.
