In this episode we explore coming out and queer identity with Ryan Lanji and Charlie Craggs.
Ryan Lanji is an art and fashion curator, winner of NETFLIX’S reality series ‘The Big Flower Fight’ and host of the upcoming BBC THREE series ’The Big Proud Party Agency'. Lanji is the founder of the queer South Asian movement HUNGAMA and NDY (Not Dead Yet) which centres POC Non Binary and Trans folk in premium gym spaces paired with East London’s best queer club nights.
Charlie Craggs is a broadcaster, author and activist. Her book ‘To My Trans Sisters’ was published in 2017, she is the host of BBC’s Transitioning Teens and the founder of Nail Transphobia which she has been running for almost 10 years. She is regarded as one of the most influential figures in the LGBTQIA+ community and regularly appears on TV and radio.
Charlie and Ryan, who are friends in their own right, have a frank and honest conversation of their coming out (or rather coming ‘in’) stories, dish out advice for other young LGBTQIA+ folk who want to find their community, and dismantle tired arguments levelled against trans people by the media. As well as being informative and incredibly moving, expect lots of laughs along the way in this episode.
