MJ Rodriguez Makes Herstory; Honoring Bayard Rustin; A Conversation with Blossom C Brown; Timothy LeDuc Becomes First Non-binary Athlete Heading to Winter Olympics

This week on Culture Q, MJ Rodriguez makes herstory as the first transgender actor to receive a Golden Globe Award for her work on Pose, and we celebrate MLK Day by honoring Bayard Rustin, an openly gay activist, for his work with Martin Luther King Jr. during the Civil Rights movement. Later we sit down with Blossom C Brown to talk about her new documentary One Life to Blossom, and then look at the news around the world including: Israel's new policy that allows same-sex couples and single men to use surrogacy as a means to have children; Timothy LeDuc becoming the first non-binary athlete to head to the Beijing Winter Olympics representing US figure skating; and a kiss-a-thon at Six Flags Mexico theme park in Mexico City, protesting homophobic park policy. Then we look at the Revry Streaming Guide, talking about the titles Baby Steps and What it Was, before celebrating Erin Parisi, a transgender mountaineer who is climbing the world's tallest summits.

Hosted by Shira Lazar and Andy Lalwani from What’s Trending, Culture Q is a weekly news shows that celebrates LGBTQ culture and highlights the stories that matter to our community.
