This week, Tyler talks to Lindz Amer, creator of Queer Kid Stuff, a web series focused on LGBTQ+ and social justice education for kids of ALL ages.
Lindz talks about growing up and not quite having the tools, support or media content to understand what they were going through and how that prompted them to create Queer Kid Stuff. They also open up about their own coming out process and the family they dream of for themselves in the years to come.

About the Guest
Lindz Amer creates LGBTQ+ and social justice media for kids and families. They write, produce, and co-host Queer Kid Stuff, an original LGBTQ+ educational web series for ages 3 and up. They also produce and host a brand new family-friendly podcast called Activist, You! where they explore social justice topics through interviews with kid & youth activists. When they’re not working, you might find them hanging out with their energetic cattle dog mutt and incredible partner on a beach in New England, enjoying a puzzle, catching up on the latest Netflix show, fiddling with their various instruments, or dabbling in acrylic painting!
