Listen to Second Sunday

This podcast explores the stories of Black queer people navigating complex relationships with The Black Church. The Church is a nostalgic pillar of the Black community but it’s also been the source of pain and ostracization for many.

It’s a second look at a topic that feels increasingly dismissed and minimized. It’s Second Sunday.


New Show! E3 Radio's Queer Open Mic

Family, My semi-break from the pod has officially ended. I'm feeling ready to take on another year of the Queer News podcast. As I reflect on the last three seasons, every year I can find story after story which affirms just how important this work really is in the world. I suspect this year will be no different. So I'm here and very committed to telling stories of the most underestimated. We deserve this and so much more. I hope you enjoy this week's episode. Talk soon, Anna Ohhh & Quick...
