When Ellen came out, when Caitlyn Jenner shook up reality T.V. , when Elliot Page broke the internet we heard the same stories about the rise in queer culture and the ‘slippery slope’ of the next generation ‘inventing new problems.’ We’ve pointed out before (more then once) that these identities aren’t exactly new, but revisionist history being what it is there’s a long way to go in setting the record straight. Dianna Anderson joins Rudy and I this week to pick up our pens and pickaxes to unearth and correct the texts, plus your calls! Catch the episode below and be sure to check back afterwards for some footNOTES!
