We’re Here. We’re Fluid. Get Used To It. From The Stakes

The Sound of Pride: Stonewall at 50

In honor of Stonewall’s 50th anniversary, it’s time for an intergenerational queer conversation. Kristin Tomlinson (pictured above) is a gender fluid, pansexual 21-year-old. She takes Kai into her very fluid online and IRL world of cartoon cats in crop tops, Instagram icons and friends who see gender as just another construct. Along the way, we look at the meaning of labels and categories for youth today and whether they’re necessary to create and claim political and social space in the LGBTQ community.

We also hear from:

- Pose actor Bhawk Snipes

- Paulette Thomas-Martin, teaching artist at SAGE Center Harlem and Vice-President of HarlemYes, Inc.
