Description

June is Pride month. It’s a month that is a celebration of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, a recognition of a decades-long struggle for rights and equality and a reminder that this struggle is ongoing. Brian Bradley joins on “This Matters” to talk about how that struggle is going in Hamilton, Ont., two years after Pride Hamilton organizers had to grapple with violent hate by far-right groups and questionable response from their local police service to protect them. They’re taking their fight all the way to the human rights tribunal and making history along the way.
