U.S. Elections: Take the LGBTQ+ Wins

This Way Out: The International LGBTQ Radio Magazine

The U.S. elections were a wake-up call for the “woke,” yet even though the overall results spell danger, there are a number of queer bright spots to celebrate. With commentary by Andy Humm and Ann Northrop of GayUSA, our coverage includes homophobic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson, trans U.S. Congressmember-elect Sarah McBride (Delaware), lesbian Wisconsin Senator Tammy Baldwin, lesbian U.S Congressmember Angie Craig (Minnesota), Native American lesbian U.S Congressmember Sharice Davids, gay U.S Congressmember Eric Sorensen, Rocky Mountain Equality Deputy Director Bruce Parker, former U.S, Senator and MSNBC analyst Claire McCaskill and U.S. Vice President and presidential candidate Kamala Harris. And in NewsWrap: Mali’s ruling military junta sends a law banning gay male sex to the president for his approval, a previously dismissed lawsuit challenging Connecticut’s transgender-supportive statutes for school sports is going forward again, diversity-equity-inclusion programs crash at global plane-maker Boeing, controversial trans woman darts star Noa-Lynn van Leuven is facing three-time champion Michael van Gerwen in the first round of the Grand Slam of Darts, the MUBI streaming service is cancelling its international film festival in Istanbul after authorities block a screening of the film “Queer,” and more international LGBTQ news reported by Sarah Montague and Joe Boehnlein (produced by Brian DeShazor).
