Chinese-American author, researcher and performer Canyon Sam talks about how her early days as a radical feminist lesbian activist led to her current focus on the significance of women in cultural revolutions and armed conflicts and how their experiences differ widely from those of men. Her latest publication “Sky Train: Tibetan Women On the Edge of History” uncovers an intimate view of Tibetan feminism largely been overlooked by conventional history. Helen Harrell highlights actor Raymond Burr on a classic edition of “Queer History” and Indiana Equality Action president Randy Studt informs listeners about IE’s investigations into alleged sexual orientation discrimination within the athletics department at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis and an incident of transgender discrimination at the Ball State hospital in Muncie. Our featured musical artists are NYC street rock duo Kin4Life. bloomingOUT also features the latest in national and international queer headline news and a community calendar highlighting local and regional events of interest to the queer community and our allies. Hosted by Helen Harrell and Joshua Sutton.
