LGBTQ+ Activism in Tokyo

Episode 6 is the final chapter in the Japan leg of the trip, and this episode explores how spaces and the facilitation of community organising are core focuses in the push for rights in the Tokyo LGBTQ+ activism scene. Host Georgie Williams is joined by Sho Akita of Normal Screen- who uses his platform to make LGBTQ+ documentaries and resources accessible to the local community- and feminist collective WAIFU, who are focused on creating safe nightlife spaces for queer femmes and trans women.
