LGBT In The Ring Ep. 47: Billy Dixon & Paris Is Bumping LGBTQ Sports Podcast

Hello, Lovelies! LGBT In The Ring welcomes back "The New Classic" Billy Dixon this week to chat about his upcoming event that brings ballroom culture and pro wrestling together, Paris Is Bumping. Dixon reveals the origin of the idea, the similarities ballroom and wrestling hold and how events like Paris Is Bumping hope to push wrestling further into new cultural spheres. We also discuss the meaning behind the name of his new finisher, the E.M.T., and why Billy has remained so vocal about black trans & queer identites amid the racial equity movement.
