Episode 15. Gay Marriage

It’s our final Pride episode, and we’re sending you off with a proposal! This week, we’re talking all about gay marriage — what it means to us as queer people, the importance it has legally and logistically in LGBTQ+ lives, the role it has played in mainstream gay organizing, and the way it has overshadowed many, many other issues related to the health and safety of queer people. 

 

This week in BitchCraft, we introduced you to Riley Smith and Hannah Bowers. You can find Riley on Instagram @thebikedyke and Hannah @thehannahbowers. You can also listen to Hannah’s music on Spotify, iTunes, and in the new indie movie, Miss Arizona, and you can watch Riley’s videos on YouTube!

Episode 12. Pride

Happy Gay-lidays! It’s PRIDE Month, and we’re feeling AMAZING but also maybe … shameful? We’re kicking off June with a deep dive into our feelings about parades, party culture, capitalism, cops, straight allyship, cisnormativity, and queer spaces. So dust off your TD Bank free rainbow plastic sunglasses and get ready to march right past Stonewall – the site of a protest against racist, transphobic police brutality – with us!

… We promise this episode isn’t exclusively a sad critique of the state of gay organizing.
