S1E5: Pride Pride evolution (w/ Karen Hawkins)

This week Taryn and Adam explore the highs and lows of modern-day Pride celebrations. They’re then joined by Reader co-publisher and co-editor in chief Karen Hawkins who talks about passion projects, lesbian joy, and being a Black, queer woman in mainstream media while our hosts shower her with compliments.
