Your host Zelda Reed returns after a fruitful summer hiatus to talk with artist and scholar R. Jamin about lesbians in the 19th century spiritualist spaces and why this movement became a refuge for queerness. If you're curious about marginalized sexualities in religious studies, or how spiritualism was built by the alphabet mafia, this episode is for you. Since Zelda and R couldn't get enough of the subject matter, this is an extra enriching two part special, with the first episode setting the groundwork for the deep dive that is episode two.
