Billy Porter: ‘As a Black Gay Man, My Rights Have Been up for Legislation Since the Moment I Could Comprehend Thought’

‘The fact that that‘s what we‘re still doing to literally just be seen is disgusting’

RUSH EXCERPT:

PORTER: "It‘s not a surprise historically you know, we, as people of color, me as a black gay man you know, my rights had been up for legislation since the moment I could comprehend thought. The fact that that‘s what we‘re still doing to literally just be seen is disgusting they are cowards and it‘s time for us to figure out how to combat that we won in the courts there flipping those decisions in the courts. There, flipping the words that gave us the wind back on us. We need lawyers to do the same thing and get it back. We did this already. I don‘t understand it. They are cowards and we have to now go back to the tactic of hitting them in their pocketbooks."
