Episode 16: Susie McCabe on ten years of TIE

from Unspun Live · host The Herald Politics Team

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, comedian and campaigner Susie McCabe joins The Herald’s education writer James McEnaney to reflect on a decade of the Time for Inclusive Education (TIE) campaign — and why the fight is far from over.Susie opens up about growing up under Section 28, coming out as a teenager in the 1990s, and the isolation and fear that shaped her early years. She shares how the culture of silence in schools, fuelled by government policy and societal stigma, robbed her generation of the support they needed — and how things have changed, and why they still need to change.
