THE INTERSECTION: Tenderloin / Part 4 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, KALW is moving to our new home at the corner of Market and Taylor on the edge of the Tenderloin. A decade ago, KALW's David Boyer spent a year documenting a corner just two blocks away for season one of THE INTERSECTION. The fourth episode of THE INTERSECTION is about change and the future at the corner of Golden Gate Ave and Leavenworth Street in San Francisco's Tenderloin.

REVISITING THE GAY LIFE: e14 The End of the Beginning (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's 1984. The mysterious illness stalking the gay community has a name and has claimed 2000 lives. Sadly, this is just the beginning of the horrors that the LGBTQ+ community will face in the next decade as the federal government does little to help or heal. In the final installment of Revisiting The Gay Life, we listen back to a speech that BOBBI CAMPBELL, the so-called AIDS Poster Boy, made in the final month of his life.

In this episode of Revisiting The Gay Life, we're looking at how queer people have been represented — and misrepresented — on the big screen up through the early 1980s. We'll listen back to Randy Alfred's 1981 interview with VITO RUSSO, author of the seminal book, The Celluloid Closet, about how homosexuality was portrayed in movies. And we’ll hear a conversation from 1981 with gay filmmaker ARTIE BRESSAN. He directed Gay USA, one of the first documentaries by and about gays in America. He was a
REVISITING THE GAY LIFE: e11 Queer Witches (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Revisiting The Gay Life, we're exploring the history of queer witches and witchcraft. As it turns out, The Gay Life did not one but two shows on witches. In 1979, host Randy Alfred talked with noted gay witch ARTHUR EVANS, who was the author of Witchcraft and the Gay Counterculture and BATYA PODOS, a lesbian witch who taught a class at SF State on Women and Ritual. Three years later, in 1982, Randy sat down with two more queer practicing witches — RAVEN and PANDORA — to hear a
