Hey there heathens and holy rollers, this week Avery and Juanita begin to discuss what their “Show Up Queen” verse would have centered. The conversation quickly veers into how unhelpful neoliberalism and performative politics are largely unhelpful in any political or liberation movement. They make an example out of DaBaby’s recent homophobic and HIV/AIDS-ignorant antics and conclude by drawing the parallels of the multiple ways white supremacist violence is enacted by people of all kinds of identities. Later in the episode, Avery gets personal about his ongoing relationship with desirability, protection, anger, violence, and how that all fits into his abolitionist politics. Accountability is central to this week’s episode. #AllStars6 #DragRace #DragFTL Drag from the LEFT is recorded live every Sunday at 6PM EST with your hosts @AveryWare and @JuanitaBindem on Stereo App: https://stereo.com/averyware https://stereo.com/juanitabindem Drag From the LEFT is available everywhere podcasts are streamed: https://anchor.fm/drag-from-the-left Follow us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DragFTL/Twitter: https://mobile.twitter.com/DragFTLInstagram: https://instagram.com/dragftl?igshid=...
