Seeing Queerly: Progress and Missteps (Pt 2)
We're back with another episode of How Did We Get Queer and an examination of queer representation in Canadian media.
In episode two, hosts Isaac and Thomas dig deeper into portrayals of queer identity and experience on screen and discuss ways in which characters with intersectional identities - like those of queer BIPOC people - still aren't seen on screen as frequently queer white characters. Plus, what makes for good and engaging queer storytelling and the role of social media provides a platform to demand more and better depictions of queer experience.
Special thanks to our guest for this episode, Allia McLeod for sharing her perspective as a Black queer woman working in media. Allia is the head of brand relations and content development for Verizon Media where she leads the company's LGBTQ+ Employee Resource Group. She is also a programmer for Toronto's Inside Out Film Festival.
