Friday
After searching desperately for an alternative Gay Pride event to talk about on my show, I held an interview with activist Tsipi Eran about why nothing is happening. But there seems to be an alternative / queer / radical block meeting up at Gan Meir at 10:00am, heading off to the march at 13:00 then returning half way through the event to Gan Meir for an open stage.
