Impact of the Supreme Court’s decisions & our Summer Interview Series kicks off with Unapologetic: Being Black & Queer in Podcasting with Bad Queers & FANTI – Monday, July 3, 2023

Welcome to our summer interview series. The Queer News team is changing it up for the next couple of months so we have a little more time to enjoy the summer, our families, and rest. We hope you enjoy these conversations with some really wonderful queer folks doing good in the world. Those are the stories we want to amplify here on Queer News. 

 

During the interview series we won’t leave queer news stories on the sidelines either. Anna will provide brief commentary about the top one or two queer news stories happening that we should be following. Not full stories but know we are still closely following the queer news feeds. You can always for Anna on social media to stay up to date. 

 

For example, this past week has been quite the devastating ride with the Supreme Court. From rolling back affirmation action, to student loan forgiveness, to the country’s free ride to discriminate against LGBTQ folks. It has been a hell of a week. So we are going to keep amplifying our stories. We’re going to keep pushing forward and doubling down on the work because one thing we know for sure. This is not the time to go and hide. This is the time to fight.
