We Want the Airwaves - Micia Mosely

By

Nia King

Micia Mosely wears many hats. By day, she's an educational consultant, fighting racial inequity in schools and working tirelessly to close the achievement gap. By night, she's a stand up comedian, subversively educating (while entertaining) audiences all over the US. In this podcast, we have an inter-generational dialogue about trans inclusion, mainstream gay politics (gay marriage and Don't Ask, Don't Tell) and how the internet has changed what "the Movement" looks like for better, and for worse. Highlights include:

- How performing in drag king troupe shifted her gender identity femme-ward,

- What it looks like to racially integrate (white) women's creative spaces, and

- How coming of age in the "gay 90s" shaped her politics.
