Description

Editor Sarah Brown hops from behind the mic to in front, as she and James debrief the harrowing Britney Spears testimony.  In summer fashion it's time to rewind to some of our best korners relevant for post Pride month, and as we head into summer. First up, James leads us through an exploration of the history of the Pink Triangle, which takes us to Nazi Germany, and the treatment of homosexuals. Could this happen again? Is it? We also look at the power and influence of queer culture as evidenced in the documentary Paris is Burning. Then it's suns out buns out for some summer time fun as Nnekay takes us to a journey  to Amusement Park Past! She talks about three major amusement parks that were owned and for black people and all the glamour that occurred at these amazing spots. REFERENCES: Britney Spears:Britney Full Audio Testimony The Marysue - Horrific Details About Britney's Conservatorship The Pink Trianglehttp://www.pink-triangle.org/Black Amusement Parks: https://blackthen.com/joyland-park-first-owned-operated-amusement-park-established-chicago-1923/https://blackamericaweb.com/2013/05/15/little-known-black-history-fact-joyland-park/https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/remembering-suburban-gardens-dcs-only-amusement-park/2013/10/26/62bb1c9a-3d72-11e3-a94f-b58017bfee6c_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.6693a314aaf2https://seaviewbeach.wordpress.com/http://adage.com/article/agency-news/jimmy-smith-dgwb-partners-launch-amusement-park-brands/297414/https://www.therichest.com/business/companies-business/top-10-most-popular-theme-park-operators-in-the-world/https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/here-there-and-everywhere/201701/11-warning-signs-gaslightingCONTACT USGuest Co- Host, Nnekay FitzClarke (she/her):TW: @mizzfitzie, IG: @nnekayGuest Co0Hot, Sarah Brown (she/her): IG:@sbrownsays @thequeeriencepodcastTwitter: @minoritykornerEmail: minoritykorner@gmail.comIG: @minoritykornerHost/Producer: James Arthur M: TW: @JamesArthur_M, IG: @JamesArthurM
