Today, June 5 – The drag on Native drag performances
Native activists and entertainers are among those being caught up in a recent push in several states to curb events connected to LGBTQ2 issues. A library in Montana canceled a lecture t by a Native Two-Spirit writer and activist because organizers were worried it would violate the state’s new ban on drag performances in public spaces. For the start of Pride Month, we’ll look at the new hurdles Native LGBTQ2 people are facing.
GUESTS
Sage Chanell (Shawnee, Ponca, Otoe and Lakota Sioux), drag performer and former Miss International Two-Spirit
Lady Shug (Diné), drag artist and community activist
Tomahawk Martini (Cheyenne River Sioux and Navajo), current Mother of the Year at the Albuquerque Social Club and former Miss New Mexico Pride 2022
Landa Lakes aka Miko Thomas (Chickasaw)
