Welcome to our summer interview series. This week Anna DeShawn leads us into a beautiful conversation that was had last week in Atlanta at the Saving Ourselves Symposium (SOS) conference organized by the Southern AIDS Coalition (SAC). The conversation is from the Friday morning plenary that took place at the conference. It’s titled Black LGBTQ+ Representation in Entertainment moderated by Victor Jackson featuring Asiahn, Dyllon Burnside & Nicco Annan. I’m not giving the whole conversation but the second half which leads into the Q&A. I hope in the face of even the news I reported on today that you find hope in this conversation that we are still moving forward. That we are not going back into the closet. That we are not going anywhere.

More on the 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 follow Anna on social media to stay up to date.
