Coalition has organized this year’s QUEER LIBERATION MARCH FOR BLACK
LIVES AND AGAINST POLICE BRUTALITY, happening at the same time as our
program. He’ll explain why this coalition -- forged in 2018 against
commercialization and over-policing of the Pride march – decided to
focus this year on Black Lives Matter. We'll also speak with Jason
Rosenberg, a white ACT UP member who was one of many protesters attacked
and injured by police following a June 2 Black Trans Matter street march.**
