On this week's episode of Columbus Can't Wait, we had the pleasure of speaking with Quiqi aka A.S.L. Princess, a DJ and curator who has helped solidify some of Columbus' most pivotal spaces. Quiqi breaks down her experience as an adolescent in Columbus, how the communities around her allowed her the space to come into her own and led to creative opportunities, her experience in Columbus nightlife as a trans woman, and she later breaks down how Black folks in Columbus could be more receptive of its queer community and encourages participation in what is often seen as solely queer spaces, how we build collective power, and much more.

A.S.L. Princess also hosts Character Witness on Verge FM.
