About this episode

This month we celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride and call for the self-affirmation, dignity, equality, and increased visibility of LGBTQ+ people. In this episode I explain some English terms that refer to the different minorities that make up the LGBTQ+ communities, so hopefully we can all be more informed when we use or come across these terms.

Want to learn the meaning of the ‘plus’ in LGBTQ+ ? Visit my blog post at https://hadarshemesh.com/magazine/lgbtq-meaning/
