Convos with Chordates would like to welcome our new host: Sammy Burke! For her first episode as co-host, Sammy chats with Anastasia about pride month, history of pride month, and what pride means to them.
In this episode we do talk about some topics that may be triggering for some audiences, including violence against people of the LGBTQ+ community, so please be cautious when listening.
LGBTQ+ Online Resources that we talked about and more:
The Trevor Project | For Young LGBTQ Lives (US based organization)
Stonewall (UK based organization)
r/lgbt: Reddit's home for the LGBTQ+ community
An educational subreddit about gender and sexuality
Homepage - PFLAG (originally US based organization, now has chapters in many countries)
Home | Minus18 (AU based organization)
Transcend Australia | Support for Trans, Gender Diverse and Non-Binary Children and their Families (AU based organization)
Bi.org (US based organization)
Bisexual Resource Center (biresource.org) (US based organization)
Reclaim Pride Is... — Reclaim Pride Coalition ~ NYC (reclaimpridenyc.org) (US based organization)
Queer and LGBTQIA+ community support services in Australia - ABC Everyday (AU based organizations)
Homepage | Them (US based journal)
While these resources are based in particular countries (AU, UK, and US) the experiences of lgbtq+ are not limited to the regions they write from. While others in these countries may be unfamiliar with the nuances of your situation, these resources and connections made through these resources can help you take steps to find the right community and support for you. We hope these resources can assist you on your journey of self-discovery and acceptance.
Happy Pride!
