Description

We use stories to change how we view the world and our selves in it.

In this podcast, we'll cover activists, artists, and healers in the LGBTQIA+ communities who are fighting to have their identities honored, their stories told, and their love respected.

DaQuan Williams—a proud neurodivergent Black Queer boy from Chicago—offers his own story as host of the Proud About It Podcast. The show aims to uncover the diverse stories within the LGBTQIA+ and QTPOC communities.

Chicago lost two black trans women within days of each other, yet it received little to no media coverage. In today’s episode, we remember the lives of ‘Tee Tee’ Labelle and Elise Malary. We ask ourselves how can we do better as a community to ensure the safety of trans people.
