James and Dan are joined by award-winning activist and writer George M. Johnson - their memoir 'All Boys Aren't Blue', a story of growing up black and queer in America, is People Magazine's Best Book of the Year and a reassuring testimony for young queer men of color. We talk to George about the micro-aggressions black people face everyday, the fetishisation of black queer people, why 'Blackness is inherently queer' and Dolly Parton.
