Mention of Harvey Milk here is his bio: http://milkfoundation.org/about/harvey-milk-biography/
(he also was specifically referring to like independent adults who were safe enough to come out, not vulnerable people and it is also not relevant to the SWANA region)

The mention of Allah in the podcast (Allah translates to the god) is referring to the Islamic god (other faiths also use the term Allah to refer to their lord/ there is also a pre islamic deity which is a moon god by the same name) anyways here is a link to the 99 names: https://99namesofallah.name/
*an alternative to using middle east; swana (south west Asian and north African) shout out to Edan and Pouneh for pointing out to me the issues revolved around the terminology and ways to refer to Africa)
A final note fuck cops: All police. Not only are pigs haram, but on a more serious note their may be good people but never good cops because of their job structure and having to enforce all laws including unjust ones, the harm and violence that police initiate is inexcusable.
