Drag Culture

Education, Personal Journals, Sexuality, Society & Culture, Youth

Most people’s first exposure to drag was Priscilla Queen of The Desert – but drag has been around since the dawn of theater and has grown into an incredible art form celebrated across the world. Particularly over the past few decades, it has become a HUGE part of the LGBTQIA+ community. However to many people, drag is seen as trans-phobic and offensive – so where is the line drawn?

Jordan was joined by drag queens Callum (Drag name: Graves) and Dang (Drag name: Ofelia Bits) to chat about their experiences as drag queens as well as the past, present and future of drag. And by the wonderful Jasper who spoke about his thoughts on how damaging drag can be to the trans community.

We also spoke about some wonderful NAIDOC week events: If you want to find more events to attend, head to the NAIDOC Website Here!
