IFQT FEED SWAP: Queer News with Anna DeShawn I'm Feeling Queer Today!

    • Relationships

Periodically, the crew at I'm Feeling Queer Today will share episodes from like-minded podcasts that they love.
Alex Masse presents our very first feed swap, and we are honored to be sharing a special edition episode from the Queer News, an intersectional approach to a weekly news podcast where race & sexuality meet politics, entertainment and culture.
This episode is called Change the Pattern: The AIDS Quilt Travels the South with Purpose, and you'll get to hear Anna share her experience covering the 35th Anniversary of the AIDS Memorial Quilt in San Francisco, and the emotional impact of viewing it up close and personal for the first time.
Further, the episode highlights the staggering reality that, while the South comprises only 38% of the US population, it represents over HALF of all new HIV diagnoses.
You’ll also learn about the Call My Name Project, a program that ensures the stories of Black and Brown lives lost to HIV/AIDS are honored with panels on the AIDS Memorial Quilt.
Now you may be asking why the South? The South comprises 38% of the U.S. population but it represents over half, yes over half at 52% of all new HIV diagnoses. Let me drop another stat on you. Out of the 17 states defined as being in the South by the U.S. Census; 13 of them have HIV-Specific Criminal Laws or Statutes on the books & 11 of them have actually prosecuted people for living with HIV. HIV Criminalization is still real. I’m sharing these stats because you need to know. I didn’t know and we must change the pattern.
