Welcome to Queerator! This is a show that celebrates LGBTQ+ artists and creators:) Every episode I sit down with an artist and we discuss their work as well as a queer topic of their choice.
This episode is more of a fun one to celebrate pride month:) Me and my sister Lucia sit down and talk about our favourite pride films, how Lucia hates Blue is The Warmest Colour, and whether the 'nothing about us, without us' rule applies to queer films. Enjoy!

8. Roundtable 2: Shaking the Water - A Discussion on Racism Within the LGBTQ+ Community
In this second roundtable I've invited three wonderful humans to discuss an extremely important topic: Racism within the LGBTQ+ community. My guests for this roundtable are Juliette Miller, Shady Obady, and Rachel! Although they touch upon many important issues throughout the episode, I would encourage all of you to do your own research on these topics:)
Here is an article written about Shady's enterprise that he talked about during his introduction: https://english.ahram.org.eg/NewsContent/5/35/31596/Arts--Culture/Stage--Street/Oyoon-Art-Group-to-establish-Minya-as-Upper-Egypt%E2%80%99.aspx?fbclid=IwAR134r4f-oTTlPQaOBgpnjoaw0PCho9G71TxhVmNbEptA_pSRqvm7apMJSU

3. Roundtable 1: Intolerant Family and How to Encourage Change
Because the holidays are coming up, I thought it would be great to sit down and talk to two queer people (Adrienne and Rachel) about their experiences with intolerant relatives and how their families have grown to become more accepting over time:) To anyone out there in need of support, here are some resources that Rachel has recommended.
