Hi Outward Listeners, it's Christina. Did you miss me? As you all know, I've been working on the ninth season of Slate's award-winning podcast

Slowburn. It's called Gaze Against Briggs. I can't wait to be back in your outward

feed soon, but in the meantime I want to tell you about a very special event I'm doing

with the Sloburn team at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City on June 13th.

To celebrate the new season and Pride Month, Sloburn is hosting an exclusive live

taping of the show with special guests including Eric Marcus, the host of Making Gay History.

We'll dive deeper into this season and talk about the lasting impact of the Briggs Initiative

and the continued fight over LGBTQ rights and schools. Plus we'll share some behind-the-scenes stories

You can get tickets now at Tribeca Film.com slash Sloburn.
