How is human waste from Miami ending up polluting the St. Johns River? Craig explains.
The Stonewall Uprising in New York in 1969 can be viewed as the start of the modern gay rights movement. A teenager in Hollywood, FL was inspired and started a small library to recognize the gay community. That effort gradually evolved into Fort Lauderdale's Stonewall National Museum, Archives and Library. Robert Kesten, the museum's director, joins us to discuss its history, and the history of the LGBTQ+ movement in America.
