George M. Johnson‘s ”All Boys Aren‘t Blue”


Listen Later

Hello, oatmeal cream pies! Ugh, wow, truly can't believe that the Summer Short Series is over. That, in itself, feels absurd and like a thing that should not be true, but alas. Luckily, however, we are closing the Summer Short Series with a B A N G! Persepolis did something to us because we'll be closing out the summer with another memoir--this one being called All Boys Aren't Blue by George M. Johnson! So sit back and enjoy as we discuss the intersection of being Black and queer, the best time to write a memoir, alternative versions of masculinity, and, of course, honey child (that'll make sense, we promise)! 

Intro/Icebreaker Question: 00:07 - 16:40

"Plot" Summary*: 16:57 - 47:57

Discussion: 48:06 - 1:28:03
