    Rupert Raj on Forging Community

    Shon speaks to Rupert Raj, a Canadian trans activist and psychotherapist who has dedicated his life to creating a world that’s better educated on – and safer for – trans people everywhere. Rupert opens up on losing his parents at 16 years old, just as he was starting to grapple with understanding his identity, his fight to medically transition, the intersection of his gender experience and sexual identity, activism burnout, and using his career to forge community and support young trans, non-binary and queer people in Canada.

    Kevin Aviance on Reinventing Yourself, Fiercely

    Shon speaks to New York-based drag artist and DJ, Kevin Aviance. When Kevin first found himself in Washington D.C.’s nightlife scene during the club kid era, he didn’t expect drag to become his life or to be welcomed into the le-gen-dary ‘House of Aviance’. And he certainly didn’t expect his brief feature in a Madonna music video to catapult him to fame. If this series is about meeting queer icons, Kevin Aviance is indeed that. His performances epitomise the dance culture of the 1990s and 2000s, when parties lasted all day and night, and dance floors were packed with the cities queer cliques. His story is also tinged with darkness and is a stark reminder of the threats our community still faces today but, as Kevin shows, you can’t keep a good queen down.
