Description

Describes the concept of Personal is Political within works and analysing how it incorporates intersectionality and how it explains or shows it’s role in various queer movements. I will also be using my knowledge of psychology, my own experience and examples for some alternate comparisons between queer studies and this concept.

This talk is all about the Hex Girls, and many other Straight Gay icons. I wanted to talk about this on my podcast so I looked up as much as possible. Here are the links: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/hex-girls-scooby-doo-oral-history-music-actors-queer-wicca-a9177596.html%3famp https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MrDMJckeAks These are the links to the article and YouTube video I got my information from. The rest are all on those websites so enjoy!
Man Child: A Black Lesbian Feminist’s Response; Sister Outsider by Audre Lorde on on Amazon Kindle App. This involves quotes that talk about fear, power, vulnerability, raised in a different setting than society desires, sons of lesbians, separatism, human sensitivity, Tripartite Pattern of Relating/existing; all involved in comparison of personal life, mindset, and darkness and light.
This episode is all about the Blame Game and what it is represented in societies and cultures. I explain the type of thinking and why it is thought that way. The sources are from pages 29-30 on Suzanne Pharr’s Homophobia: A Weapon of Sexism.

This episode is my analysis on the Letter to Ma reading by Merle Woo. I will be discussing examples (might be repeated, sorry) and my own thoughts as well as my Psychological understanding. Hopefully this episode will seem more refined than the previous one. Link to source: https://philife.nd.edu/assets/308441/fullsize/merlewoo_lettertoma_modelapology.pdf.
This episode is all about Self-Love and Self-Hate. Okay, so I procrastinated on this one, so I might be going off on a tangent in some places, but some of the major important things would be the Story of the foolish Traveller, Narcissism, Privilege, generosity, perspectives and more! Sorry, today my laziness got the better of me so enjoy another rant of mine! It will turn out good…I hope.
This episode is all about Fear and Silence! I will be mentioning a few Psychological terms and my experiences combined, along with comparing and contrasting Silence and Fear with Darkness and Light. Fair warning: I gulped a lot in this audio mainly because of my anxiety about recording my voice and trying to stay on topic. It might sound choppy, so please bear with the awkward pauses. Anyways, please enjoy!
In this episode, I will be sharing two more quotes from Lorde, and will also be giving an example through a metaphor I made up on the spot with inspiration from Lorde’s examples of these metaphors. I came up with a whole story too! I will also be sharing my thoughts as well!
In this episode, I will be talking about two quotes from an essay I found in the book Sister Outsider by Audre Lorde and how they relate to The personal is political concept and the significance behind it. This is my first episode and is also my first podcast so there may be some extra tangents in there.
