Why Drag for Kids?

NOTE: This episode was recorded prior to the tragic Nashville Christian school shooting. We do spend some time in this episode discussing the recently introduced TN legislation.

So excited for today’s conversational episode! This is a much longer episode than my normal ones. Simply because I’m having a real time conversation with a friend.

I'm joined by Meseidy Riveria from @itsmeseidy. We discuss and try to make sense of the need for children to attend drag performances. I hope you not only enjoy the talking points, but also walk away feeling empowered to speak out and have these challenging conversations in your own communities.
