RADIO ONLINE | Monday, June 15, 2020 | 9:35am CT

In commemoration of 2020 Pride Month, Independent Radio KPFK 90.7 FM and THE BLUNT POST with VIC are proud to announce a new partnership with the Stonewall Democratic Club, the nation's oldest LGBTQIA+ and feminist political group, advocating for progressive issues since 1975.

In collaboration, the organizations are producing PrideCast LIVE, an 11-hour marathon, on Saturday, June 27, from 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. in solidarity with Global Pride and Black Lives Matter. The daylong program will air LIVE on KPFK 90.7 FM and Livestream on KPFK.org.

For the special program, KPFK is transforming its logo and creating custom on-air content commemorating pride and standing in solidarity with the Black community. Between the three collaborators, this broadcast will feature Pride-themed shows, exclusive interviews with leading politicians, queer activists, and other high-profile public figures, artist spotlights, and a variety of fresh editorial.

"KPFK Los Angeles is proud to celebrate Pride Day with support from the Stonewall Democratic Club on Global Pride Day. We are committed to the communities we serve to provide news, information, stories, music, culture, and the arts. Please help us remain fearless by supporting us at KPFK.org," said Kevin Fleming, KPFK Program Director.

The marathon will feature a variety of diverse shows by KPFK programmers, members of the Stonewall Democratic Club, and radio hosts from the community. Vic Gerami, the host of THE BLUNT POST with VIC, will produce and emcee the event. He will also host the marathon's opening show.
