Heterosexuals have been bashed because their attackers perceived them not to be, and even lesbians and gays who one would expect to be "safe" can fall prey to serious hate crimes. SERGEANT PAUL CARHILL, an openly-gay police officer in London, became one such target. REBECCA SANDLES talked with him after his experience at the hands of Royal Air Force personnel. Sandles and MATT FOSTER also look at steps being taken in Manchester to combat gay and lesbian bashing there by encouraging the reporting of these crimes (with comments by hate crime victims MONICA GOFF & KEVIN TIMMINS, Manchester police Inspector KEVIN McLAUGHLIN, and IAN WILMONT of The Greater Manchester Lesbian & Gay Policing Initiative) [from BBC Radio 5 Live's "Out This Week"] (outro music from "Glad To Be Gay" by THE TOM ROBINSON BAND) [9:00] + "TWO" I.D. by Tom Robinson [:15] .............................................................................. ............................... 9:25 SEGMENT #3 - The lesbigay experience in the 90's is giving rise to a new explosion of great music by out lesbian and gay performers.
