Abstract
Mainstream media prohibits free publication and circulation of LGBT perspectives; this research analyzes and reveals the rapid development and metamorphosis of the LGBT podcasting community (2005-2008) from a queer theory framework. Included are current use and opportunities for new media as instructional tools of voice and equity in adult learning. Participants are encouraged to listen to podcasts produced by the researcher for an introduction to the topic. Post-conference dialogue will also be available.
