Erasing Rainbows From The Streets


In this episode, we discuss the recent legislation in Florida targeting rainbow crosswalks under the guise of uniform traffic control measures and alleged safety concerns. The hosts dive deep into the political and social implications, particularly focusing on how this move disproportionately impacts the LGBTQ+ community. Covering examples from Florida cities like Orlando, Key West, and Miami, the conversation highlights the erasure of symbols significant to the LGBTQ+ community and memorials such as the Pulse nightclub shooting. The episode sheds light on the frustrations and hopes for better representation and empathy from the broader community. Join us as we unravel this troubling issue and discuss actions we can take to support and protect the rights of the LGBTQ+ community.
