Hello! Welcome back to a brand new episode of the Queerience Podcast. This week I`m joined by Nia & Ness are a Black, out-lesbian couple and performance-art duo, whose work serves as a visual-auditory diary of their daily lives. They believe that it’s necessary for their specific stories, as Black lesbian women, to be shared, and it is their responsibility to share them. Since officially starting their company in 2016, their work and love have transformed into something greater than the art and lives they initially dreamed of. They’ve toured two evening-length works, given speeches about their activism and shared their love at universities, colleges, conferences, festivals, churches, parks, bars and homes nationwide, and have been featured on multiple radio, tv and written news outlets. Taking their work beyond performances, they’ve recently launched their podcast, Reclaiming Love with Nia & Ness on Spotify, iTunes and iHeartRadio. Nia & Ness are currently based in Rosendale, New York. Follow their journey on social media @niaandness and visit their website at niaandness.com.

Hello Everyone! Welcome back to this weeks episode of the Queerience. This week I`m joined by Uche Onwa Co- Director of The Queer Detainee Empowerment Project (QDEP) as we discuss the prison industrial complex, ICE and we why they need to be abolished as well as the work QDEP is doing to help. Listen to his story here on Queerience.\n\n\n\nQDEP assists folks coming out of immigration detention in securing  structural, health/wellness, educational, legal, and emotional support  and services. They work to organize around the structural barriers and  state violence that LGBTQIA TS & GNC detainee/undocumented folks  face related to their immigration status, race, sexuality, and gender  expression/ identity.\nUchechukwu Onwa (he/him/his) is a Nigerian born organizer, trainer,  abolitionist and movement strategist, who fled his home country due to  the repression and persecution he faced as a gay man. He is a member of  the Black LGBTQIA+ Migrant Project (BLMP) with over 8 years of  experience working in community outreach, public health, and human  rights. He is a high-impact voice for the LGBTQ+ community and a social  justice advocate. He previously worked for the International Center for  Advocacy on Rights to Health (ICARH) in Abuja, Nigeria coordinating an  HIV prevention program and conducting human rights advocacy work for  LGBTQ+ communities. Upon his arrival in the US, Uche continued his  health advocacy and human rights work by engaging in high-level work.  Since March 2019 Uche has been organizing with QDEP, focusing on  building and strengthening the membership base while maintaining  partnerships and coalitions with other organizations. He also leads  QDEP’s Leadership Development Program for Cisgender Queer and Trans  Women, and Gender Non-Conforming People. Uche’s work has been featured  in Windy City Times, Sunderland, Plus Magazine, Buzzfeed, Pulitzer Center and more.
