Summary (from NAC website): When you are young and face the challenges of the world, sometimes it takes courage. For young Natives who are gay, lesbian, bisexual or a transgender who decide to come out and talk about who they are, courage is what brings them to express themselves. How are young Natives finding the courage to come out about their sexuality? How are they dealing with the hostility and discrimination, both in and out of tribal communities? Guests include Ryan Bowker from the Cheyenne River Sioux and recipient of the Colin Higgins Foundation Youth Courage Award.

Summary (from NAC website): October 11th is National Coming Out Day. It’s the 20th birthday of the unfurling of the AIDS Quilt on the National Mall in Washington D.C. Since then, some of the stigma attached to being gay has been washed away. Still, the news about a loved one’s homosexuality can come as a big surprise to friends and family. How would you handle the news? Have you ever had someone in your inner circle come out to you? Are you planning on using today as a springboard to a more open lifestyle? Guests include Native comedian Charlie Ballard and author/gay rights advocate Eric Marcus.
