What do you want for LGBTQ+ folks in media that you don’t already see out there? What I’ve seen in [LGBTQ+] representation recently is an enormous push to have queer and trans people, and especially queer and trans people of color, in front of the camera. And I think that’s great and important. But we also need those people behind the camera; we need them on staff making decisions and telling the stories of their own communities in a way where they’re not tokenized. You can’t have diversity that’s just superficial; if your idea of diversity is just what people can see, then you’re just doing it for clout.
I know you got your start at Autostraddle, but I’m wondering what other queer resources you wish you had when you were younger? I wish that I had a media landscape that acknowledged that lesbians exist, which I think has only recently started to happen. Wasn’t it you who wrote the article about Shane [from The L Word]?
