Ep #32 – Queer Coding Quickly Captivates

Hey!!!! Welcome, Welcome, Welcome To BLACK TO THE FUTURE PODCAST! We are so pleased you could join us here today! On this podcast we will discussing various topics through a Black, Queer, Feminist Lens. Our goal is elevate, educate, and empower those of us in the Black Queer community, and also to help our supporters and allies to become more knowledgeable about what we need as far as support! 

On this episode Mikey & Xay Dé chat about Queer Coding. This is a concept in which characters in media are not EXPLICITLY identified as Queer, BUT are given characteristics which imply they could be Queer. Although this may be a twisted, clever way of getting representation in media for Queer people, it turns out that not all Queer Coding is positive.
