Amelia Abraham

On the 10th episode of the 2nd season of Lavender Language, we’re speaking with journalist, Amelia Abraham. Amelia has written for such publications as Vogue, the Guardian, I-D and the Sunday Times and has worked as an editor for Dazed, Refinery29 and VICE. Her first book, Queer Intentions, came out in 2019 which chronicles her journey navigating questions of modern queer life. She is currently working on her second book, We Can Do Better Than This, scheduled for a Summer 2021 release. We chatted with Amelia over zoom to discuss her life before journalism, writing her first book and the reinvention of Pride since the worldwide effects of Covid-19.
