Theme From Q: Club Toilets

Welcome to Dance inc. This episode is all about flushing out exclusion and freshening up clubs with acceptance- yes, it’s a toilet episode! No one should be harassed for needing the loo yet so often a club’s bogs can become a breeding ground for negative attitudes towards clubbers using the toilets and the people working at them too. We hear from Paris Lees, Atitha Sen Gupta, Christine Burns, Suzanne Bull and Paula Duran on stories concerning topics that include everyday sexism, exploited labour, transphobia, racism and disabled access.
