Show Notes
The Peace Country Progressive Alliance are a small network of activists with the daunting task of "fighting hate" in their rural community.
That fight utilizes a variety of tactics, including physically standing up to venomous right-wing protestors outside drag story time events. Why do they do it? How do they mobilize in remote parts of the country with very little resources?
What does defending the lgbtq community have to do with building working class solidarity? A lot!
