Happy Intersex Awareness Day 2024!
The I in Us is an Australian-based radio show about the intersex community, by the intersex community, for everyone.
On this week’s show, Paul and guest co-host Cody Smith celebrated International Intersex Awareness Day being held on Saturday Oct 26. They welcomed intersex veterinarian Dr Channy McGowan and Aotearoa/New Zealand intersex advocate Georgia Andrews.
Paul, Cody and their guests talked about the history of International Intersex Awareness Day, why the day is important to the intersex community and shared updates about the status of work to achieve legislative protections for intersex people living in Victoria and elsewhere in Australia.
Georgia, who works closely with Stephanie Lum as the Stakeholder Manager at YOUth&I, an Australian-based intersex youth publication, gave us a sneak peek into the soon to be released fourth edition. She read poetry submitted by intersex youth from across the globe. Profoundly personal, the poetry evoked much emotion, bringing Paul and his guests to tears – so before you listen, grab some tissues.
Paul was thrilled to premiere “Avarice”, the newest song by Melbourne-based independent intersex musician Nyx, from Nyx and the Nightmakers.
Tune into JOY 94.9 Wednesday’s at 6pm for another exciting episode of The I in Us.
