I can't tell you how excited I am to bring this podcast to you! Lucas Wilson is a trailblazer in our community! 
Lucas holds an MA in English from McMaster University, as well as an MTS from Vanderbilt University. An Invisible History Project Fellow, Lucas is finishing his interdisciplinary PhD in Comparative Studies at Florida Atlantic University. His academic work has appeared in Canadian Jewish Studies, Flannery O’Connor Review,, and in edited collections published by The MLA, SUNY Press, and DIO Press. He also has a forthcoming article in The Journal of Jewish Identities and a forthcoming book chapter about Liberty University’s gay conversion therapy program (published through The University of Alabama Press). His public-facing work has appeared in The Advocate, Queerty, LGBTQ Nation, and Religion Dispatches, among other venues. He is currently a Sessional Lecturer at University of Toronto. 
On top of his many accomplishments, Lucas is a wickedly hilarious, sharp, and brilliant advocate. I was beyond honored to have spent some time with him, and I am so happy to bring this podcast to you!
