The Black Veil

Bradley is a gender non-binary person looking for their place in the world. Can a quasi-religious, LGBTQ+ protest group help Bradley to find it?

Bradley (they / them) has recently joined The Order of Perpetual Indulgence – an LGBTQ+ protest group that uses religious imagery, drag and activism to call attention to sexual intolerance. The group has provided Bradley with a supportive community and a social purpose. As someone who has struggled with their own gender identity for years, Bradley now identifies as non-binary, neither male or female – but is aware that this identity is not fully recognised by wider society or the state. Bradley now has two events approaching: their wedding to long-term partner, Emma, and their ordination as ‘Black Veil’ – the highest level within The Order of Perpetual Indulgence. Will these two events give Bradley the confidence to step out into the world as the authentic version of themself?
