Radio Interview: Queer Unlimited on Red Light Jazz Radio
Listen to the full interview with Sajad Salmanpour on Red Light Jazz Radio, aired Wednesday, 18 June 2025, where he shares insights into the upcoming Queer Unlimited event during Refugee Welcome Week. In this conversation, Sajad reflects on his own journey as a queer refugee, and how art, storytelling, and collective action can offer visibility and empowerment for displaced LGBTQIA+ people.
The interview highlights the resilience of queer refugees who are moving from invisibility to center stage — transforming experiences of marginalization into powerful acts of resistance through performance, music, food, and visual art.
You’ll also hear about the mission behind Queer Work, the collaboration with community partners, and the more than 30 artists from refugee backgrounds who are involved in the event.
Red Light Jazz Radio, based in the heart of Amsterdam, reaches a wide and diverse local audience. The interview is conducted in English and offers a meaningful look into the role of art in healing, reclaiming space, and building queer refugee-led futures.
