LINK IN BIO As a leader in Southeastern LGBTQ+ media, Queer Kentucky recognized the need to highlight the importance of queer media in the region. To better understand its impact, we collected data to assess the challenges, opportunities, and value these publications bring to the LGBTQ+ community. Our goal was to explore the Southern queer media landscape and measure how it resonates with its audience.⁠
⁠
We engaged with 11 publications across the Southeast, gathering insights from publishers, staff reporters, and their audiences. Our survey covered everything from demographic data to the depth of connection readers feel with print media versus digital platforms.⁠
⁠
Over the coming weeks, we will be releasing data about what we found through our survey.⁠

LINK IN BIO ✍🏻 @oliviakrauth As anticipated, Gov. Andy Beshear vetoed a bill that would both allow conversion therapy in Kentucky and prevent transgender Kentuckians on Medicaid from accessing gender-affirming health care.

Kentucky’s overwhelmingly Republican legislature, though, is likely to override his veto of House Bill 495 during the final days of session this coming week.

“Conversion therapy is torture, and that’s why I signed an executive order banning it in Kentucky,” Beshear said in a social media post Saturday night. “Legislators seek to overturn those protections with HB 495, which I vetoed at the Fairness Dinner.

🚨 BREAKING: Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear veto

🚨 BREAKING: Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear vetoes HB 495 live at the annual Fairness Campaign Dinner. HB 495 would prohibit bans on conversion therapy, and ban gender-affirming care for transgender Kentuckians on Medicaid. @govandybeshear

In August 2024, the World Health Organization declared mpox (formerly known as monkeypox) a global health emergency.⁠
⁠
While the risk to Kentuckians is estimated to be low, the 2022 outbreak proved that we all need to be informed about the risks of mpox to protect ourselves and our communities.⁠
⁠
Our latest issue dives deep into mpox's impact on the LGBTQ+ community, exploring prevention, stigma, and what the future of queer health looks like. From understanding the disease and its variants to tip on cleaning your sex toys, we’ve got you covered with in-depth articles, engaging social and video content, and even a few billboards.⁠

With queer rights and health access under attack, let's work together to keep our community safe, informed, and healthy.
