episode Queer Rights, Public Space and Allyship artwork

Queer Rights, Public Space and Allyship

Writer, disability justice organiser and LGBTQ+ campaigner Ellen Jones joins VOICEBOX to discuss why visibility alone has never guaranteed equality. In this conversation, Ellen explores how queer and trans communities are being excluded not only through politics and legislation, but through culture itself - from publishing and journalism to public space, accessibility and media narratives. Topics include: • Why visibility does not guarantee equality • How publishing and media are retreating from queer stories • The disappearance of queer public spaces • What meaningful solidarity and allyship looks like • How culture shapes whose lives are considered valuable Follow: @voicebox_ on Instagram Follow: @cheltfestivals on TikTok Subscribe to @theVOICEBOXpod on YouTube Learn more about VOICEBOX at cheltenhamfestivals.org/voicebox-podcast ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Beyond Labels: Belonging, access and what it means to be heard

In this episode of the VOICEBOX Podcast, Charli Clement examines how disability and neurodivergence shape lived experience in the UK today.  Working at the intersection of disability, chronic illness, neurodivergence and LGBTQ+ identity, Charli is known for translating lived experience into practical, usable guidance.

Rethinking Environmentalism: How Climate & Culture Collide

Joycelyn Longdon joins VOICEBOX to explore the relationship between environmental justice, race and storytelling. This episode examines how climate narratives often exclude the communities most affected by environmental destruction, and why imagination is a powerful tool for shaping a more just future. The conversation challenges traditional environmentalism and asks what a truly inclusive climate movement might look like. Topics include: • Why marginalised communities have faced environmental harm for generations • The power of arts and culture to support climate action • The myth that environmentalism isn’t for Black communities • The role of imagination in climate solutions Follow: @voicebox_ on Instagram Follow: @cheltfestivals on TikTok Subscribe to @theVOICEBOXpod on YouTube Learn more about VOICEBOX at cheltenhamfestivals.org/voicebox-podcast ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

Taboos, Shame & Saying the Unsayable

Poets Hollie McNish and Laurie Bolger join VOICEBOX to discuss why poetry remains a vital space for honesty, connection and expression. From taboo subjects to everyday life, they explore how poetry can help people articulate experiences that often go unspoken. The conversation also examines the role of live spaces, community poetry rooms and grassroots venues in shaping cultural belonging – and why poetry doesn’t have to be political to matter.
