Summary

On this week’s episode, Julie & Brandy deal with the loss of their long-time friend & frequent collaborator, Lady Red Couture. Lady Red was a well-known drag queen, black trans activist, and mentor to many in the LGBTQ community. This episode was recorded within days of her death, so the girls are still very much in their feelings, but the show must go on. So they break down the 60+ straight days of Black Lives Matter protests, before talking to Allison Riggs from the Southern Coalition for Social Justice about racial inequality and voter suppression, and what everyone needs to be doing RIGHT NOW in order to prepare to vote in the November election. All that, plus a 'So There’s That' featuring an organization founded by LeBron James to help combat black voter-suppression. It won’t bring Lady Red back, but this episode is dedicated to her anyway, and Julie & Brandy hope she would have liked it. **************************************************************************************************************************** *** Subscribe to our Patreon Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/dumbgaypolitics **** *** Check out our website! https://www.julieandbrandy.com ***** ***** Dumb Gay Politics with Julie & Brandy **** Julie Goldman **** Brandy Howard **** Julie and Brandy *** The People's Couch *** DGP *** Gay Podcast *** Political Podcast *** Lesbian *** Bravo *** Starburns Audio Learn more about your ad choices.
