"I didn't have a choice. I came out and came to the black queer community because I wanted to hide - but this community saved my life."

Ian Haddock is the Founder and Executive Director of Normal Anomaly, a Houston-based nonprofit dedicated to assisting Black, Queer+ people with overcoming barriers and ending stigmas and problematic narratives. Ian is many things — a community empath, critical thinker, and sex analogist. So much of Ian’s work is born from his own experience with coming to terms with his own identity as a youth in small-town Texas - but not always on his own terms. This is a conversation that will take you into an experience that will be unfamiliar territory for many of us, but real and important for greater empathy and understanding. And Ian’s the perfect person to help tell that story.
