We identify as... (Pride 2021, Ep. 3)

Exhaling Words

Welcome to Pride 2021!

This year for Pride Month, I wanted to do a series of episodes dedicated to my community, the LGBTQIA+ community, aka the Queer Community. In this third part, I sit down with @multilingualmarissa to discuss the survey they conducted of the language-learning community (with the help of the wonderful @the.far.see). Together we dive into queer identities among language learners, representation, and feelings of belonging to the larger community. You can check out the full details of the survey at http://relearnalanguage.com/who-are-language-learners/.
If you missed it, Marissa and I also did an Instagram Live event before recording this episode where we discussed queer-centered spaces in the language-learning community. You can check it out on the IGTV section of their IG profile.
Stay tuned throughout this month for more queer-focused episodes and other great Pride Month content for queer language learners!
