Fred, Linda and Lance talk about Mormon involvement in Prop 8

Chino Blanco, June 18, 2010June 18, 2010

Fred Karger, Dustin Lance Black, and Linda Stay discuss the film 8: The Mormon Proposition
and Mormon involvement in the Prop 8 campaign generally.

If you’ve got 16 minutes to spare, you’re welcome to listen in.
P.S. Pls don’t razz me about the graphics. It’s a radio interview.
I just pulled whatever images happened to be handy. 😉

Greetings from the West Village, circa the last time a Mormon hillbilly arrived in town thinking that overalls were still OK.

It’s Friday night. What I wouldn’t do for a slice right about now. Happy weekend all!
