Outsidehers

On this episode of OUTsideHERS, host Julia Curtis-Burnes is joined by Zine author Maya Meredith! They delve into questions of identity and claiming terms--bisexuality versus queerness, bisexual backlash, femme flagging and femme invisibility. Maya shares her life growing up as a child raised by a black father who was raised by a white family, atheism, and coming out. She walks us through her life working in A PR firm focused on restaurants--yum! And she shares tips and tricks to cooking on a budget and writing a successful pitch! Maya outlines her writing process for her Zine, Wade in The Water, and they discuss her work with Artists Against Police Violence, the importance of Oral History, shades of blackness, levels of intimacy and the best pizza in NYC! An amazing and information packed episode, indeed! Maya's Zine, Wade in the Water, is now available online for purchase through activist art collective justseeds!
