Some call it slacktivism, but rainbow profile pictures on Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, and other social media platforms show a connection between a seemingly minor digital change and a major social movement. Did the rainbow pictures change peoples minds? Or did they signal already-established beliefs? And how does it feel to anti-gay online users who now feel they're the silent minority?

Host Kim Horcher discusses with special guests Dustin McLean (Low Budget Prop Shop on AWE Me, Homemade on Cinefix) and Xander Jeanneret (The Library Bards, King of the Nerds)!
