KFAI 90.3FM Celebrates Pride with 24-Hours of Programming by the Twin Cities LGBTQIA2S+ Community
KFAI is celebrating Pride Month with 24 hours of broadcast programming produced
and delivered by Twin Cities LGBTQIA+ and Two-Spirit community members on Thursday, June 22,
2023—starting at midnight on 90.3FM in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul, and online at kfai [dot] org.
As the home of the nation’s longest-running LGBTQ radio program, Fresh Fruit, KFAI has been
championing inclusion, visibility, and access for the LGBTQIA2S+ community in the media and beyond
since 1978. This year we’re giving gratitude to Fresh Fruit’s founders and celebrating our shared (and
continued) effort to increase generational and cultural understanding and break down the bias caused by
misinformation.
At present, outspoken lawmakers are working around the clock to strip the LGBTQ community of their
constitutional rights to life, liberty, and happiness, principles that require access to safe and affordable
healthcare and housing, and equal employment opportunities.
At KFAI, we believe in the power of personal growth through storytelling, especially when hearing people
tell their stories. In doing so, we create the potential for growing one’s capacity for understanding and
acceptance.
Broadcast Event Details:
24-Hours of Pride on KFAI, Thursday, June 22, 2023
90.3FM, Minneapolis & Saint Paul, and online at kfai dot org.
