Ep 6: We Will Not Be Erased

There haven’t always been many representations of queer love in the media for youth to look up to. So they often forge their own path. In this episode, Indigo tells us all about his girlfriend, how he defines love, and what it takes to make a relationship work.

In this episode, some of our cast of teenagers talk about the spaces they feel joy or find sanctuary in.

Ep 4: My Own Safe Space

QUEER CHRONICLES is a show that empowers LGBTQ+ folks to document their personal lives and experiences in their own words. In our premiere season, a group of teenagers share their perspectives on growing up queer, trans and gender non-conforming – all while living in states where their very existence is under attack.
Journalist, author and transgender activist Raquel Willis hosts the series, guiding us through their self-discovery, hobbies, family and community life, self-expression, and life as queer and trans teens. Follow along as we learn about their journeys, their struggles and challenges, and how they are finding what queer and trans liberation means to them.
