Join us for our last episode of the season, wherein Ella and Greg discuss how a selfless act of heroism led to the ruination of a man's personal life. We'll discuss how to NOT be a good friend, the state of human rights in 1975, and how far society's come since then - and how far we still have to go. Also, Ella has an announcement.

In honor of Pride month I am sharing an interview I recorded earlier this year with LGBT historian Lillian Faderman about her latest book Harvey Milk: His Lives and Death. Milk was the first openly gay man elected to public office, but unfortunately he was assassinated in 1978, after less than a year in office. We discuss some of the highlights of his short career and explore why many consider him the Martin Luther King of the fight for LGBT Civil Rights.   Links and References: Harvey Milk: His Lives and Death by Lillian Faderman The Mayor of Castro Street: The Life and Times of Harvey Milk Paperback (2008) by Randy Shilts Announcements: Send email to docartemis@gmail.com or post voice feedback at http://speakpipe.com/docartemis.
