Queerness and Community: Celebrating Self-Described "Misfit-ery"!


Listen Later

It can be isolating and lonely to feel different from your peers, whether that's because of your identity, social and political beliefs, or simply the way you think about the world. Fortunately, there are so many others out there who don't fit within various social norms who ar ealso working to construct community. In this episode, TTL participants team up with hosts from the Future Perfect Project's podcast "I'm Feeling Queer Today" to explore what it means to be a "misfit," the strengths that come with being different, and how to find spaces where you belong. While this episode is a celebration of Pride Month and the beauty of self acceptance, this conversation is for anyone who feels like they bump up against the status quo. Thank you to Celeste, Emma, Lily, and Eric for joining us for this episode.
