QUEENS UPDATE: A Town Hall Meeting Part 2: Gay in America
Date:
12/21/2010 The second part of Queens Update features a discussion of two of the most controversial topics in America today: the military’s policy of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and the question of same-sex marriage. A diverse panel with Guy B. Palumbo, Lt. Colonel (Ret.) U.S Army; Rashied Bey, community activist; Rubin Roberson, retired corrections officer; and William “Bill” Scott; attorney, participated in a lively discussion.
Is it unconstitutional to deny those who are openly gay the right to serve in the military? Does the military’s policy of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” segregate and ostracize certain members of the community? If those who join the military are united with one common purpose despite gender, ethnicity, race, or orientation, why deny gays the right to openly serve in the military? How can we ask individuals to fight for our constitutional rights and then deny them certain rights, such as same-sex marriage?
QUEENS Update: A Town Hall Meeting Part 1: First Amendment Under Fire
Date:
12/21/2010 An assortment of opinionated community members had the opportunity to discuss various issues of importance concerning our First Amendment rights. The lively panel featured Ibrahim Martin Lyons, Imam; Guy B. Palumbo, Lt. Colonel (Ret.) U.S Army; William “Bill” Scott, attorney; and Rubin Roberson, retired corrections officer.
In this program, discussion is focused on whether an Islamic cultural center should be built two blocks from Ground Zero. During this heated yet friendly debate, the main question on everyone’s mind is: Should the Islamic community be allowed to build a cultural center near Ground Zero or should it be more sensitive to the families of the victims of 9/11?
Produced and made possible by Daniel Leone, Clifford Jacobs, Roslyn Nieves, Robert Strahle, and the entire QPTV staff. Be sure to tune in for this lively and insightful debate.
