Episode 6: Proudly Queer, Latin & Punk

De: Nuria Net, Judy-Cantor Navas

Narrado por: Ceci Bastida

Punk is not just white, straight, cis, or male. Queer Latin punks have been fighting for a more expansive, inclusive vision of the scene since its early days. We meet Kid Congo Powers, a queer Mexican American kid from East LA who went on to form The Gun Club, and later joined The Cramps and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds as a renowned guitarist. We explore how intersectionality influences punk music with Letty Martinez, lead singer of the Texas band FEA, who talks about growing up Latin and queer along the border. Joan Jett tells us how FEA is carrying on her legacy of women in rock.
