Communes - they aren’t just for hippies anymore! The Bloomington Housing Cooperative is a group of students and community members who have elected to live together and share expenses in a multiple-bedroom home in the city. Members Laura Nading and Zach Obst talk about the challenges and benefits of unrelated people living together as our guests this week on EcoReport, a weekly program providing independent media coverage of environmental and ecological issues with a focus on local, state and regional people, issues, and events in order to foster open discussion of human relationships with nature and the Earth and to encourage you to take personal responsibility for the world in which we live. Each program features timely eco-related headline news, a feature interview or event recording, and a calendar of events of interest to the environmentally conscious.

Immigration Equality communication director Steve Ralls updates us from the front lines of the battle for immigration rights reform to benefit lesbian, gay, bisexual and trangender couples and those who are HIV positive, in terms of federal legislation and grassroots organizational efforts. Commentator Lylanne Musselman presents “The Awakening: Part Two” on a new edition of "L Words". Our featured musical artist is NYC gay hip-hopper Lester Greene with “Life is What You Make It” and “If I Was Invisible”. bloomingOUT also features the latest in national and international queer headline news and a community calendar highlighting local and regional events of interest to the queer community and our allies. Hosted by Helen Harrell and Sean Lemieux.
