The Party
The party is where it all starts. When the yes vote for same-sex marriage was announced in 2017, who got to celebrate this win? And who was left out of the party? In this episode of When Love Wins we chat to Zakaria Shahruddin, Maddee Clark and Neika Lehman.
The Rally
The Australian marriage postal survey asked one question, “Should the law be changed to allow same-sex couples to marry?” It was a voluntary survey where you could tick Yes or No. But was the answer really that simple? One question provoked many conversations. In this episode of When Love Wins we chat to Peter Waples-Crowe, Yasmin Rose and Sam B.
When Love Wins
‘Love wins’, ’love is love’ and ’equal love’ have become deeply ingrained in our memories of the marriage postal survey. Everywhere we looked we saw rainbow flags, t-shirts and even corporations selling us equal love. But for many queer people of colour, love is more than just branding or #lovewins. In this episode of When Love Wins we chat to Brian Lau and Chu-Ping Yu.
After the Party
After the party has died down, who is left out of the celebration? Is the queer community standing up and supporting issues that impact Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islanders, people of colour, refugees and migrants? In this episode we hear from Sophie Chauhan, Samia G. and Amao Leota Lu.
