Join HumanitiesDC and community leaders in learning about Latine Drag’s vibrant history and culture in the nation’s capital.
Latine Drag has vibrant history and culture in the nation’s capital! Community leaders José Gutiérrez, Mari Con Carne, and Alexa Rodríguez, will explore that history, guided by program curator and HumanitiesDC District Fellow, Carolina Fuentes. The event, part panel and part oral history, will offer space for the three community leaders to recount their stories about the evolution of Drag as they have witnessed it. Gutiérrez will illuminate the history of DC’s LGBTQ+ community, Rodríguez will discuss her activist work for the trans community and people living with HIV, finally Mari Con Carne will share stories from their own experiences in Drag and advocacy work and will conclude the program with a special performance. Fuentes will moderate the discussion and there will be ample time for audience Q&A.
