Episode 56: Queer visibility and challenging biases with Shannon Hutchison and Stephanie Hope (she/her)

In this episode, Shannon, Stephanie and I talk about the important of queer visibility in challenging biases. We share examples of some biases against the queer community and the work Shannon and Steph are doing to break down those biases. Finally, we talk about what we can do to increase the visibility of all marginalised communities.
