Ep 78 | The Gay Rights Movement of The Other 60’s

<p>Nika and Anya discuss the importance of straight men redistributing their wealth of knowledge about cars to the queer community. The besties discuss problematic age gaps, the intersection of the queer experience with queer representation in cinema (specifically the new film Fire Island), Nika’s depressive episode coming to an end, and Anya getting robbed in London in 2017. Nika tells us about the leaps and bounds made by the pre-Nazi Germany gay rights movement, the betrayal of the “normal” gays to the greater queer community (go figure), and ultimately the tragic loss of the rich library of 19th century queer research and literature as fascism rose in the early 20th century.
