Description: This week marks the anniversary of the Stonewall riots — the very reason we celebrate Pride in June every year. In honor of the drag queens that have always been on the front lines of the fight for equality before, during, and after Stonewall, we dive deep into the troubling saga of Tennessee’s first-in-the-nation attempt to ban public drag performances.Memphis-based drag queen and Tennessee native Bella DuBalle joins us to discuss the impact the legislation has had on local performers ever since was introduced, the community’s resilience that ultimately led to the law being overturned, and why the world needs drag.Show notes:Bella DuBalle – https://www.instagram.com/belladuballe/?hl=enPBS: Drag performers on what Tennessee’s ban on public performances means to them – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVmi95tZ8HkWhat A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastCrooked Coffee is officially here.
