QueerAF | Inspiring LGBTQIA+ stories told by emerging queer creatives8 Mai

Season 7 | Ten years of the QueerAF podcast

We need to shut down the lies the anti-trans movement tell.

The best way to do that? With queer journalism, and our history.

This season on the QueerAF podcast, as we mark ten years of bringing you award-winning documentaries and live podcast events, we’re back with our trademark approach.

https://www.wearequeeraf.com/podcast/

Investing in LGBTQIA+ talent to build their media careers, buying them equipment to keep forever, supporting them to change the media, and yes - telling you beautiful stories.

Season 7 of the QueerAF podcast is another community affair with episodes from National Student Pride with Ian McKellen and Munroe Bergdorf, From Margate Pride’s Heritage Hotline and we get started with a rare interview with Big Brother winner Nadia Almada in conversation with Zelah Glasson and Lars Fellows at Trans+ History Week’s community event, with a whole new series of mini-documentaties out in June, and all the way through Pride season.

We are QueerAF, and yeah - so are you.
