Denver Preserves Black LGBTQ History, World’s "First Openly Gay Imam" Has Passed, and More

On today’s episode, we cover a library in Colorado that’s preserving Black LGBTQ history, a lesbian insurance agent *swoon* in Hong Kong building a community for Queer elders, and the tragic death of a Queer religious leader (TW: gun violence). It’s heavy out there, y’all, but we need to savor the wholesome moments too.

And our hosts are steering CLEAR of the Kia asylum. Nay’s got the Disney+ Yelp pulled up, Vico’s ready to take TiG on the road (Denver we’re lookin at you!), and Chanel’s show DROPS TODAY! Stream Win or Lose — and Disney+, you better have a Kai pfp for us… We’re talking directly to the Mouse.
