Damien Nguyen interview ahead of Pride In Protest's Mardi Gras Street Rally. Includes discussion about the Rally's demands: trans youth healthcare; a stop to over-policing of the LGBTIQA+ community, including strip searches and police use as mental health first responders; protections for queer students and workers, including ceasing sackings on religious grounds.
Damien Nguyen will co-chair the Rally with Pride In Protest colleague Luna Choo. Begins 1 pm, 15 February at Pride Square, Newtown and finishes at Victoria Park at Fair Day.
