Hey Queens! We are back for another inspiring episode with the INCREDIBLE A.T. aka @journaldupole π In this episode, we speak about A.T.βs journey in poledance, their move from Kenya to the UK and how it has shaped their identity as a queer person of colour. We talk about ways to diversify the pole industry and educate ourselves more about blackness and black history.
Buckle up folx, there is a lot to unpack here! ENJOY and please donβt forget to leave a 5-star review for yo gurrrl.
You can find Antony here.
