Do you know who Lynn Conway is? Without her work on the microchip - you wouldn’t be listening to this podcast. Did you know that there are genderqueer ballroom voguing scenes in both India and Wales? How much do you know about the eccentric Reed Erikson, who funded research into dolphin telepathy and pioneering gender-affirming surgeries when no one else would?
This season on the award-winning QueerAF podcast, we’re back for more of the history lesson we never had - with Trans+ History Week.
Six Trans+ budding audio producers are here with stories from Trans+ history to help us understand the queer world we live in now - plus how we can march for our future.
Knowledge of our past, is fundamental for our liberation. So we’re back with our trademark stamp, investing in Queer and Trans+ creative talent, buying them equipment to keep forever, supporting them to change the media, and yes - telling you beautiful stories.
Season 6 of QueerAF, is for the millennia-old history of Trans+ communities all over the world. Look out in your podcast app for a special live recording with Philsophy Tube and House of Dragon’s Abaigial Thorn with Netflix’s Sex Education’s Anthony Lexa May 7th, and the whole series comign out in June, and all the way through Pride season.
