Come celebrate 5 years of Bad Queers!
We’re throwing down all month long with virtual events and an in-person celebration in Chicago. Don’t miss the chance to connect and toast to five years of this podcast.
This week, we unpack major headlines—from the CDC’s sudden shutdown of key HIV prevention initiatives to Cory Booker’s record-breaking filibuster speech. Plus, a win for the LGBTQ+ community: country artist Tanner Adell comes out as pansexual at the Billboard Women in Music Awards.
In our advice segment, Am I a Bad Queer?, we dig into:
- Is having a “backup bae” while in a relationship ever okay?
- Coming out and feeling like a queer newbie
- Going back in the closet to safely explore sexuality
For Bad Queer Opinions, we’re talking:
Why we need to celebrate positive masculine traits
The hard truth: not everyone in the LGBTQ+ community is a safe space
Shoutouts:
Kris: Shaundel Washington-Spivey - elected first Black and LGBTQ mayor of La Crosse Wis. on Tuesday Washington-Spivey is a former elected school board member and community leader who co-founded Black Leaders Acquiring Collective Knowledge (B.L.A.C.K.), Inc., a nonprofit organization that supports La Crosse youth through various programs and initiatives.
Shana: Be Steadwell - Author of Chocolate Chip City - Black women and queer people are at the center. It’s got magic, hot sexy scenes, and is grounded in spirit, resistance and dreams. Imagine what DC would look like if we all stepped in our power. Coming out June 3rd - Follow on IG @besteadwell
