Queer Representation in the Media

  • Summary

  • Representation is important as it helps people feel less alone, by letting them know there's a community of others like them. Unfortunately, the history behind queer representation in the media is a short one - historically LBGT characters have often been stereotypical, or received cruel fates.

    On today's episode of Word on Wearside, join Nisha and Katy, as discuss queer representation in the media; the history of queer representation, and the effects this has had on the community.

    The team behind this episode:

    • Nisha Cullen
    • Katy Davison

    Word on Wearside is a Spark Sunderland podcast, produced by journalism students at the University of Sunderland. With teaching supervision by Lecturer in Audio, Jay Sykes.
