Picture it, Brooklyn 2019, it’s mid summer and its World Pride, a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots. Among the proud glistening bodies and sponsored floats emerges a processions of banners celebrating people of color and their stories. Listen in on this intimate conversation with the artist Gabriel Garcia Roman, the first Mexican American artist to share his work on the pride parade in New York city. We talk about his riveting and important ongoing project Queer Icons, we also chat about arriving at a "good" place, and the dancing rituals of introverts.  

Music: “Lonely Cowboys” by Simon Mathewson
