Today, we have a very special show featuring the fabulous and fantastic Maxine LaQueene, as well as returning friends of the show, Krista and Tracie! Maxine is a drag performer, trans activist, and community leader, and her presence and voice during the recent legislative session in Texas has been so powerful and inspiring. Our conversation today focuses on these recent events and how the community has responded, with Maxine sharing the best and worst of Pride Month, reasons to remain hopeful, and how allies can best serve the queer community. We touch on some of the sessions and bills, as well as their impact. One of the strongest messages to come out of our chat is how we all have a role to play and that it is possible to make a difference in your own community. We ask that you please listen to this episode with care, and remember to take breaks when needed. Stick with us through this sometimes difficult conversation with an amazing, empowering performer and a true inspiration, Maxine LaQueene!
