Southern, Queer, & "Pritty": Liberation at the Intersection of Race, Gender, & Sexual Identity
Show Notes

In this episode, we will have a conversation with Keith Miller regarding the importance of holding space for the LGBTQ+ community. The history, identities, experiences, and needs of LGBTQ+ people are often overlooked when it comes to their intersecting racial identities. 

Keith Miller is the Deputy Director at the Deep Center and founder of Healing By Any Means. In his work and art, he explores concepts of masculinity, sexuality, intimacy, and art as a form of resistance, transformation, and healing. In our conversation with him, we unpack why intersectionality matters deeply, the power of representation through his work Pritty: The Animation, and how to honor and respect the narratives of LGBTQ+ people of color.
