“Sometimes people want obviously some good news, and even if the good news is literally just ‘oh there are other people with the same emotions as you have and you can be in community with us’ that even in itself is welcome”
– Blair Stenvick
Blair Stenvick, Communications Manager at Basic Rights Oregon, joins us to talk about LGBTQ2SIA+ rights in the Trump era. With friends around us feeling fearful (understandably), we wanted to talk about what sort of advocacy and action can be relied on to keep our queer friends safe. Community is everything. ✊
Samantha Silverman joins Kip and Tim as a guest host (thanks Sam for adding your insight!).
