There were no Gay Pride events in Russia this week, but activists attending the world Cup events managed to send a message of support by displaying the Pride Flag colors while out in public. Now This presents video documentation of the group displaying the “Hidden Flag” at various locations around the city and interviews Mateo Fernández of Columbia who describes his participation in the event.
Since our platform is about expressing ideas and ideals instead of cash flow, clicks, or fundraising, we have the freedom to include a wide range of topics and formats that might not work elsewhere. We don’t need or want paid content, promotional materials, or story lines designed to please donors.
So the idea here is to present videos one or more of the editors feel speaks to them. Sometimes it will be news. Sometimes it will be history. And a lot of the time it will be culture. You can not and should not separate these things: it is diversity and intersectionality that makes our movement strong.
