About this episode

It’s time to talk about ‘LGBTI’. In this podcast we unpack where the acronym came from, what it represents now and whether it’s still relevant into the future. We’re joined by Dennis Altman, from La Trobe University, Joy’s very own CEO, Tennille Moisel and Beau Driscoll, a young trans man, as we contemplate the distinctions between behaviours and identities.

The post The LGBTI acronym – is it still relevant? appeared first on The Deep End.
