πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆβœ¨ Your Weekly Update: Anna Shares Her Top 10 Moments from the DNC, Lambda Legal Secures Big Win & Big Freedia is Honored


Hey Reader,

Here is a message from Anna

Family, what an amazing week! I'm still recovering and there doesn't seem to be enough sleep in the world but that's okay. It's okay because it was all so worth it. The experience, the people, the moments just all of it was a time I will not soon forget. Thank you for being on the journey with me.

Also, based on the poll it looks like most of us are pretty energized around the election while some of us are are getting there ;)

-Anna

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.

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...
