Leviticus 18:22

Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.In our first episode, we discuss the Clobber Passages and misconceptions about the Bible. Where did they come from? Why are they wrong, and how have they hurt queer folks? Thank you to our guests this week, Reverend Florentino Cordova, Ruby Almeida, Reverend Jakob Hero-Shaw, Pastor Dawn, Reverend Altagracia Perez-Bullard, and Reverend Jeanelle N. Ablola.

Om Podcasten

An investigative history podcast with a focus on queer & women’s history. Each season, we explore a different corner of history, using literary works or historical figures as a starting point to discuss a broader story of erasure of people with marginalized identities. In our second season, we bring you a high-seas adventure full of surprises as we uncover the queer & women's history of pirates. Gay love and even marriage were more common in the 17th-century world of pirates than we might expect, and history is full of cross-dressing, swashbuckling pirates who broke gender norms and created their own queer culture. We explore the stories behind these radical rebel and discuss why have those stories been erased for hundreds of years. Season 1 delves into the truth and controversy surrounding Sappho; her life, the Isle of Lesbos and her relevance today. Produced in partnership with 3SM.
