    Last Call presents: The Krewe of Ishtar

    Hey, folks!  Here's a little bonus episode to while some time on... Recently, free went to Diverse Works in Houston to present this story to an audience.  It's about the first Lesbian Mardi Gras Krewe, as far as we know, the Krewe of Ishtar.  For this one, free interviewed one of the Krewe's founders, Diane Dimiceli and Gail Pellerin and Marsha Robert who were both active members. The piece was commissioned and made possible by Diverse Works, and Nick Vaughn and Jake Margolin, whose project 50 states "is an ongoing fifty-part series of installations created in response to recently uncovered or unappreciated LGBTQ2 histories from each state." from free: Jake and I go way back (I believe I was 12 when we met) and it was an honor to get to collaborate on this and see the beautiful work he and Nick are making together.  They commissioned this piece to accompany the premiere of their Louisiana piece, exploring intersections of queer life with maritime, commercial indigo, Mardi Gras, and capitalism. Due to our current state of affairs, the exhibit is not currently available to visit, but you can view the work at diverseworks.org.  You can check out their other work at NickandJakestudio.com

    Episode 8: Mary Capps

    Heya folks!  Sorry we were off the radar for a while: had to replace the hard drive of our main computer.  But we are back up and running with a brand new episode! Mary Capps has been an anti-racist, social justice, lesbian, feminist activist for 50 years or so, mostly in New Orleans.  She served as director of the YWCA Rape Crisis Service in New Orleans and has worked in various networks & autonomous groups against violence against women, as an invited speaker, workshop facilitator and with several groups in the movement to end violence against women & children, rape, incest, battering & murder.  She also took part in the Autonomous Women’s Movement of New Orleans in the 1970s. She and her current partner Alda Talley are the Godmothers of this project.  When we were first getting started in our Dyke Bar research they shared their stories and their vast network so generously. We Love you, Mary and Alda, and thanks for making all this possible.  This story is about how Mary found queer community finally began identifying as a lesbian. This Episode was produced by Laine Kaplan-Levenson with music by free feral and Peter Bowling.
