  • "Horse Barbie": Geena Rocero and Bob Keary in Conversation

    15/01/2024 Duración: 52min

    “The world makes you something that you’re not, but you know inside what you are.” Thus begins Geena Rocero’s earth-shifting TED Talk in March of 2014, a speech she wrote when the impulse to hide her truest self from the world—once deemed necessary—became unbearable. Born in 1983 in Manila, Geena began competing in local beauty pageants at the age of 15, winning local, then national adulation as she claimed trophy after trophy. With mounting fame came pressure and harsh criticism, and thus the necessity to harness the grit and strength of spirit that would ensure her continued ascent. From Filipina pageant queen to American model; from effeminate child dodging hateful taunts on the street, to transgender advocate imparting wisdom at the United Nations—this spring, Geena Rocero shares her singular journey in HORSE BARBIE: A Memoir (The Dial Press, 5/30/23). Born and raised in the Philippines, Geena Rocero is an award-winning producer, director, model, public speaker, trans rights advocate, and television host

  • Saltine + Sullivan Present: Eggs Isle

    Saltine and Sullivan are a creative duo based out of Provincetown and Boston MA. Saltine is the host of Eggs Isle, a radio show about the rejects of Ptown. At this very moment Saltine is looking through a spyglass preparing her return to Provincetown. The journey from her home on Eggs Isle, the island home to all who are now “too ugly and too poor” to live in modern-day Provincetown, is in mileage short, but is nevertheless fraught with peril as the only way to and from this oasis for the displaced is a rickety skiff with a broken motor. Nevertheless, she’ll find her way here. She always does, eventually planting her busted high heels into the sands of Provincetown to share the gospel of bohemia and broadcast tales of the ravages of nouveau-riche capitalism and the devastating effects of a society awash in competitive consumption, frozen rosé, and Botox. Cody Sullivan and his godmother Saltine are a creative duo based in Provincetown Massachusetts. Sullivan writes stories, performs solo theater, makes draw

  • Devin N. Morris and Jenna Wortham in Conversation

    13/12/2022 Duración: 34min

    Devin N. Morris is a Baltimore born, Brooklyn based artist who is interested in abstracting American life and subverting traditional value systems through the exploration of racial and sexual identity in mixed media paintings, photographs, writings and video. His works prioritize displays of personal innocence and acts of kindness within surreal landscapes and elaborate draped environments that reimagine the social boundaries imposed on male interactions, platonic and otherwise. The use of gestural kindnesses between real and imagined characters are inspired by his various experiences growing as a black boy in Baltimore, MD and his later experiences navigating the world as a black queer man. Memory subconsciously roots itself in the use of familiar household materials & fabrics, while symbolically he arranges it. Looking to buoy his new realities in a permanent real space, Morris posits his reimagined societies as a prehistory to futures that are impossible to imagine. Jenna Wortham is an award-winning j

    Washington, D.C. has always been a city of secrets. Few have been more dramatic than the ones revealed in James Kirchick’s Secret City: The Hidden History of Gay Washington.

Not since Robert Caro’s Years of Lyndon Johnson have I been so riveted by a work of history. Secret City is not gay history. It is American history.” —George Stephanopoulos James Kirchick is an award-winning journalist and author of The End of Europe: Dictators, Demagogues and the Coming Dark Age.
