This Memorial Day, Queer News with Anna DeShawn brings you a powerful one-on-one with activist, artist, and author Christopher Murphy. Christopher's breakout thriller The Other Side of the Mirror isn’t just a page-turner—it’s a bold reimagining of the thriller genre told through a Black queer lens.

We talk about:

• ✍🏾 The importance of telling our own stories

• 📚 How E. Lynn Harris inspired his journey

• 🧠 Generational trauma, mystery, and romance in his novels

• 🎢 His love for thrill-seeking and writing with purpose

• 🏳️‍🌈 What queer life looks like in Vegas and why representation still matters

Tap in to hear why storytelling is resistance—and how Christopher is writing us into the narrative, one thriller at a time.
