It’s part two of our visit to Albert Einstein Academy (AEA), Northeast Ohio’s first LGBTQ+ affirming high school. In this bonus episode of I’m Feeling Queer Today!, we return to Ohio on our queer roadtrip around the country. You’ll hear a roundtable discussion with the trans students at AEA, a brand new segment called “Representation: Putting The Me in Media,” and some original writing. Plus, an intergenerational conversation between one of our episode hosts and his uncle and grandmother, discussing how they each learned about queerness. We suggest listening to Part 1 of this episode first.
