Description

In the second episode of One Foot In The Closet, our host Name Redacted, sits down with Nanseera, as they talk about: 

  1. Being queer and being lower middle class; simultaneously a dependent of your family while being your family's hope for upwards social mobility due to being the first degree holder in generations

  2. Balancing knowing that someone who loves you, and someone who loves you, doesn't love a part of you 

  3. The pressure to get married by family and society, bringing people to your home to matchmake with no knowledge or consideration of your queerness or stance on marriage

  4. Experiences creating art with One Foot In The Closet and having to change pronouns or work under pseudonyms to create queer art

Content warning for: Political leaders attacking queer people as a way to rally people; pastors with an anti-queer agenda and associating queerness with Satan; and being outed by a well-meaning person.
