(Un)marginalised reveals the truth about living on the intersection of diverse identities. Founded and hosted by Liel K. Bridgford, the show focuses on improving all of our understandings of ourselves and each other. The podcast reveals hidden truths we all want to know about through interviews of real people who belong to multiple disadvantaged groups. We're talking about everything - anything from sports, to fashion, parenthood, mental health, disability, migration and much more. We're exploring the triumphs, resilience, struggles and joys of our multilayered existence. We're challenging myths and encouraging empathy, equality and love. Join us to laugh, cry, enjoy, and learn.
