Description

This program is a radio hour devoted exclusively to issues affecting the LGBTQ+/Queer community. To be more specific, this comprises anyone who considers themselves to be either a sexual preference minority (gay, lesbian, bi, asexual, etc8…) or a gender minority (trans, gender fluid, etc…). We provide a space where these populations can listen to and speak on issues affecting the LGBTQ+/Queer community. Through news, commentary, national and local guests, music and humor, we hope to attract members of the queer community to give them a safe space where they can share information on a variety of subjects that affect us all. By creating meaningful conversations we hope to foster a stronger sense of a shared community among the various LGTBQ+ subsets. Finally, we hope to educate the larger straight cisgender community about who we are and our experiences. We seek to deconstruct society’s traditional gender roles so that all beings are free to live their lives as their most authentic selves.
