Town Hall: A Black Queer Podcast is back from hiatus, diving into the complexities of colorism. Join Peppermint and Bob the Drag Queen as they explore this crucial topic. This episode features interviews with Lashawn (@love.lashaaawn), a drag queen, comedian, epic fantasy writer, and community builder proudly belonging to the Afro-Caribbean, queer, and gaming communities; Amryn (@peppermintpattytypegalpal), a visual artist, creative, and musician from New Mexico, who shares their journey of overcoming harmful colorist beliefs and embracing blackness in all shades; and Alexia (@alexia.is.that.gurl), an Afro-Latina singer, actor, dancer, and director from Jersey City, who discusses her unique experiences as a light-skinned, mixed-race person of Latin descent. Tune in for an insightful discussion on colorism's impact and the journey to self-acceptance.
