Being Black and Bisexual: Navigating Life and Love with Travon Free

In this episode of the Beyond Dating podcast, host Stephanie and guest Travon Free discuss the experiences of being Black and bisexual in society. Travon mentions that people in the LGBTQ+ community have always existed, but now they have a space and freedom to be who they are. Travon finds it fascinating to learn about people who are different from themselves and is excited about the growing amount of literature and storytelling about different genders, sexualities, and identities. Travon highlights a Netflix show called "Heart Stopper" as the best representation of the experiences of someone discovering their bisexuality that he has seen. Travon encourages everyone to consume as much queer storytelling and literature as possible, whether you identify as LGBTQ+ or not. Travon also acknowledges that there is still room for growth and improvement within the LGBTQ+ community, as there are issues such as racism, sexism, fat phobia, transphobia, and homophobia that still exist within it.
