Episode 200: More Butch Heroes LIVE featuring Ria Brodell

Wahoo! Episode 200 is here and we’re celebrating with a special live episode with Ria Brodell! Ria gets into how they create each portrait and biography, why art brings us closer to one another, and the gifts and challenges of the archive. They also discuss the responsibility of the artist in representing the “underhistoricized” as Chris Vargas calls it in the introduction to the volume. Plus, questions and answers with the live audience!
