The Aftermath: The Murder of Scott Amedure

The Alarmist - A podcast by The Alarmist

New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca speaks with Social Studies teacher and LGBTQ Historian David Duffield about the broader history of queer culture and oppression leading up to the tragic murder of Scott Amedure after his appearance on the Jenny Jones Show. We revisit the Gay Panic defense, discuss the straight washing which was occuring at the time and reflect on the price the LGBTQ community had to pay for its newfound visibility in 90’s America. Join our Patreon!We have merch!Join our Discord!Tell us who you think is to blame at http://thealarmistpodcast.comEmail us at [email protected] us on Instagram @thealarmistpodcastFollow us on Twitter @alarmistThe   Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/alarmist.
