Life as an Academic Historian, Transgender Woman & LGBTQ+ Activist. A Conversation with PIPPA CATTERALL // Part 2 This Is Not The Daria Show

    • Self-Improvement

Welcome back to this Pride Month special! 

In this part we learn about all the small things most of us wouldn't think twice about but have such an impact on the transgender community like obtaining a passport, accessing medication, getting married and generally the lack of rights the trans community has. 

Pippa talks about her work on making more Queer friendly pubic spaces as well as Pride Month, the relationship it has with capitalism and what the celebratory month shows about our modern British society. Pippa also tells us about her local area's response to LGBTQ+ pride, how she lives in an extremely conservative area and generally the relationship between Conservative voters and LGBTQ+ supporters. 

We discuss the relationship Britain has with refugees and how these people are viewed by different members on society and how the state have portrayed immigrants and refugees. Pippa skilfully distinguishes between fact and fiction. The references Pippa makes to historical and religious trends and the significant events which impact today adds such insight to help us better understand the struggles members of the LGBTQ+ community face today. 

Thank you so much for listening to this Pride Month special episode with Pippa. It was such a great experience talking to someone with such passion and knowledge on gender, the LGBTQ+ community in both past and present context alongside British politics. 

As always, please do let us know how you found today's episode by dropping us an email on thisisnotthedariashow@yahoo.com or by sliding into our dms @thisisnotthedariashow ;)) I'd love to know if you'd like to have more academics on the show :)

Thank you so much Pippa, so sorry it was cut a bit short and finished rather abruptly, there was just too much to talk about - I guess we'll just have to go for a part 3 & 4! It's been such an insightful and thought provoking podcast, looking forward to having more stimulating conversations with other members of the LGBTQ+ community. 

Remember to follow us on insta & tiktok @thisisnotthedariashow & stay tuned for our next episode ;)

Stay Safe & Stay Swag, 

Lots of Love,
