It Is Complicated

Lockdown and Covid trauma


Listen Later

Lockdown and Covid trauma - and queer survival is complicated. How queers are surviving the lockdown and the extended trauma of the Covid pandemic. We talk about privilege, and the privilege of being able to shelter - and how we as queers have developed superpowers to survive these long slow trauma events - we are glittery cockroaches who will be there at the end of days - not just surviving - partying!


We talked about two books - Jamie Hale’s book of sonnets - Shield - available here: https://vervepoetrypress.com/product/jamie-hale-shield-pre-order-free-uk-pp/?v=7516fd43adaa
