The Radical Roots of Queer Spirituality: A History They Tried to Erase

In this week’s episode, Peppermint and Hugh Ryan explore the vibrant intersection of queer identity and spirituality—a part of queer history that’s often overlooked or misunderstood. They celebrate queerness as an essential thread in the fabric of human culture, diving into everything from holiday‑season consumerism to the deep historical roots of gender variance across the world.Together, they unpack how spirituality has always played a role in queer life, highlighting traditions and practices that honor and uplift queer and trans people, reflecting on the importance of language, culture, and community.Ultimately, this episode is a reminder of the power of self‑creation, the resilience of queer existence, and the long, rich history that proves queerness isn’t going anywhere—because it’s always been here.Click here for more information or to purchase Peppemints Trancendence Tea Click here to pre-order Hugh’s new book “My Bad”Follow us at:@peppermint247@hughoryan@pridehousemediaWrite to us at:[email protected]
