Out and Proud, Black Comedian, Sampson, uses his rural upbringing in North Carolina, Family, and his Church, to bring the funny to his comedy and the activism to his writing. Appearing from the Comedy Store in Hollywood to the White House, he is so funny and committed to healing stigma, we had to have him on our show.
"Healing Stigma on Left of Str8 Radio" is a weekly featured show on the Left of Str8 Radio Network, currently airing on Thursdays at 2pm PST / 5pm EST right here on Blog Talk Radio. Co-host Kevin Hogan is a high-profile stigma survivor, who's taken his experience and created the Healing Stigma Program, an amalgamation of peer counseling, seminars, workbooks, and classes designed to help in all areas of healing stigma. Co-host Scott Fullerton is an LGBT activist and host of two highly successful LGBT and ally Internet radio shows centered around LGBT issues, the entertainment industry, foodies, and books. Together, Kevin and Scott's goal is to shine the light on stigma and how to heal it in both the LGBT and straight communities, through guests who are able to share, educate, heal, and bring these stigmatizing issues to a new format.
On today’s show, we talk with Eliel Cruz about how being stigmatized for being bisexual led him to establish safe places for other LGBTQ individuals within his faith community.
