Episode 17 - Poetry, Storytelling, and Holding Higher Standards with Marcelina Ramirez

Marcelina Ramirez is a local artist and activist - a voice unafraid to speak on behalf of the marginalized and misused. In our conversation, we discuss the significance of representation, how detrimental and widespread brown facing STILL is in theatre communities, and the importance of loving you.

The section that some listeners may find triggering lasts from 50:02-52:54.
