PrideCast
Born during the pandemic to create a space for LGBTQIA+ folks in Seattle to gather, the PrideCast continues even as we get back to in-person events. PrideFest is an arts and cultural non-profit that does advocacy and our PrideCast guests and content reflect that. Hosted by Seattle PrideFest Executive Director Egan Orion.

PrideFest Episode 8: Queer Black Voices
•
Egan Orion
Over our break for Pride month, there were weeks of protests against police violence and for justice for George Floyd. Since it was Pride month as well, those who are both black and LGBTQ+ in our community felt the moment even more intensely. This week, we talk to three black activists and performers, from Dominique Stevens Stephens (Drag King, Mayor Durkan's Senior External Affairs Liaison ) to Thaddeus (performer, host, songwriter) and to the inimitable Adra Boo (Fly Moon Royalty, Hotels).
Dominique Stephens @ 8:50
