How do we find nonbinary, trans, and queer parent community? What does it mean to raise kids in a broader community of queer support? How did our own first experiences of trans and queer community affect us growing up? Where do we see our stories reflected around us and connect with others like us now and across history? In this final episode in our parenting series, we talk with new guest, Raw, about finding Black, queer parent community as part of Parentxhood, growing up queer in Michigan, and their graphic novel featuring a non-binary main character. We hear again from Dylan Flunker and Meghan Myron-Karels one more time to close out this season. We’ll also be talking about Prime Video’s A League of Their Own series… because we can’t help ourselves…
