Episode one - ‘The hips on the Drag Queen’ and Drag Pedagogy

In this first EVER episode of The Early Years Edit Adam and Laura are joined by Chris Langdon-Casey to discuss the social media reaction to Laura’s post about the book ‘The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish’. They discuss an article by Lil Miss Hot Mess and Harper Keenan all about Drag Pedagogy in early childhood, what is a ‘TERF’ and what YOU can do to support the LGBTQIA+ community through your Early Years Practice.
