THE CHAIR (S1/Ep34) — One Person Protest

Hello Beautiful People, 

I’m Your Host Dreme. 

I’m a Black woman, an educator turned tech entrepreneur but still an educator. Building a platform called THE CHAIR is a Black and Brown centered tech platform dedicated to supporting people on their hair journey. You can design hairboards, connect to hair stylists, and share hair care tips all in one space for a more joyous and streamlined experience. I built THE CHAIR Podcast to highlight hair journeys. A reminder to keep creating magic. As people sit in THE CHAIR you will get more than just hair stories. You will be immersed into experiences surrounding education, entrepreneurship, and identity. I hope you enjoy listening to my stories and the stories of my guests as we sit in THE CHAIR. 

THE CHAIR (S1/Ep34) — One Person Protest

Kai is family. Kai is love. Kai is special. They have graced me with the opportunity to interview them and enter into their world of drag and conversations surrounding gender, queerness, identity and allyship. 

Kai shares stories about their hair journey in and out of drag. Kai highlights the multiple ways that hair is connected to us and within us. 

Come learn with Kai as they sit in THE CHAIR. 

Their Bio: 

Killah Croc (they/them) is a Boston based drag artist who has made a name for themself in the Boston drag scene since February 2023. Recently, Killah won the historic All-Star Mondays competition and has also made history as one of the first drag artists to perform at The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum with their drag family The House of Calypso. Don't let Killah’s simplistic approach to drag fool you; their command of the song and  stage will leave you full but also wanting more. Killah uses their platform to uplift their fellow Black & Brown Trans Artists of Color.
