Binary Bashers is an original audio docu-series by Embracing All of Me that explores Black historical artists, poets, lawyers, and activists whose lives reveal belonging, identity, desire, and creative work beyond rigid binaries.

The series employs a "bi-coded" and a "queer-coded" lens grounded in the figures own words, work, and relationships. This modern interpretive lens isn’t about assigning labels; it changes what we are trained to notice, so Black history can finally hold what it always was: more than one thing.

Featuring stories of Claude McKay, Alice Dunbar-Nelson, Countee Cullen, June Jordan, Dr. Ibrahim Farajaje, Pauli Murray, Ma Rainey, Leslie Hutchinson, Kuwasi Balagoon, and Frances Thompson.

Launching February 3, 2026 for Black History Month with new episodes every Tuesday.

Embracing All of Me is a storytelling and advocacy platform for the multi, complex, and in-between, uplifting the voices of Bi+ people of color, our kin and friends. ⁠⁠⁠Visit our FAQs and Sources page to learn more about how the episodes were developed.
