During Pride Month, Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken sat down with gay journalist Jonathan Capehart to discuss LGBTQ rights.
The two men opened the discussion, Pressing for Equality: Engaging on LGBTQI Issues Around the World, noting the challenges and human rights abuses LGBTQ people around the world face daily. The interview was hosted by the Atlantic Council s Front Page Pride Edition Virtual Conversation June 21.
Blinken, 59, called LGBTQ rights one of the leading human rights issues of our time, summarizing some of the ways queer people are affected by being targeted, scapegoated, and denied equal access to health care, housing, employment, and justice.
