42. Speaking on Love, Lesbianism, and Liberation

Our Pride Month celebrations continue! This week, we are extremely excited to welcome photographer and activist Lola Flash, storyteller and writer Laura Hemingway, writer and tennis player Emilia Monell, and poet and mentee Zai Rivera. In conversation with GWN mentee Kama Barry, our guests leave no stone unturned when it comes to discussing the intersection of race, sexuality, and gender. You won’t want to miss this rich, intergenerational conversation about how navigating queerness has morphed over time amidst the ongoing fight for LGBTQ rights.
