"I'm not the candidate - the Movement is the candidate." That's what San Francisco gay organizer Harvey Milk said as he ran for Supervisor not once but three times, finally being elected in 1977.
We talk about movements, liberation, the movie, and Milk the man with John Scagliotti, Emmy award winning documentarian, producer of Before Stonewall, and After Stonewall. He's also the director of the Gay Filmmakers' Consortium; Pamela Sneed, poet, performance artist, and former teacher at the Harvey Milk High School in New York City. Pamela's new book is titled KONG and it's out now from Vintage Entities Press. Also with us ANN NORTHROP, co-host of Gay U.S.A. on Free Speech TV, longtime lesbian activist, and all around gadfly.
