Queer Angle

Happy new year, everyone! In this first episode of 2021, we discuss a recent reform to the Honduran constitution that seeks to prevent abortion and same-sex marriage from ever being legalized in the country. A very fun start to the year... Not! Instagram: @queerangle Facebook: Queer Angle Music: "The Enchanted Forest" by Roger Plexico rogerplexico.bandcamp.com/track/the-enchanted-forest

In this episode, we discuss the criminalization of queer people in Poland by the populist Law and Justice party, the possible queerness of Fréderic Chopin, and the end of Trump's term and what that means for authoritarian governments around the world.

Queer Angle is back again, baby! The world has been through a lot since the last episode, which we barely talk about at all. We DO, however, muse on music and TV highlights of a socially distanced 2020. And we talk some politics, ‘cause we couldn't help ourselves.

Last month we celebrated Bisexuality Visibility Week and in honor of that, we are dedicating this episode to just that: BISEXUALITY! We cover the complexities that it entails, the many myths surrounding it as well as how you can be the best bi+ ally ever. Sad news this time from Africa and the US. In Uganda, a new propose bill threatens LGBTQ lives, while in the US, trans health care rights are once more under attack.

This week, Simon and José bring you the tea on what being gay in Sweden is like. What are the laws, how do they affect regular folk, and how likely you are to face discrimination as a gay couple?

Childhood crushes, the moment you realize you stood out from the crowd and the presence of LGBTQ+ figures when growing up.

In today's episode, we discuss the caravan of Central American migrants that headed for the American border prior to the US midterm elections this fall.

And what drives them to escape? Instagram: @queerangle Facebook: Queer Angle Music: "The Enchanted Forest" by Roger Plexico rogerplexico.bandcamp.com/track/the-en…anted-forest
