  • "Town Hall: A Black Queer Podcast" dives into the topic of truth and consequences. Join Peppermint and Bob the Drag Queen as they explore the ramifications and punishments Black queer people often face when honest about their experiences in the workplace, at home, and in society. This episode features interviews with Gene Gragg (@pepsi_jenner), a Black and non-binary individual from San Francisco’s Lower Haight district, who shares the consequences of political protest as a Black queer person, and Nate (@_bandidobae), an army veteran turned advocate and real estate professional, who recounts his military service and discharge under the discriminatory “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy.

    A lot of comments toward the top that aren't talking about the important parts: Love the messaging, love featuring black queer individuals and sharing their stories, this is super real and I'm glad that other people (even out of my immediate circles) are talking about the problems in America (and by extension the world).

    I would love to come on episodes like this!!! I’m a National Champion competive dancer, Stand-up Comedian, and drag queen who’s lived in every corner of Texas. I’m 27 and I’ve been on stages here since I was 14. I’ve been socially transitioned for 6 years, and started my medical transition about a year ago. There’s been an abundance of different experiences throughout my entertainment career in Texas, prior/currently before I’ve broken into the big screen or zeitgeist. Hope to hear from you soon!!!

    I'll preface this by saying Peppermint has always been stunning, but Miss Peppermint just looks more and more gorgeous every time I see her on my screen.
    Not to leave Bob out this look is fantastic too, and then they throw in the intellectuals and wisdom … some people just don't know how good we've got it at the moment.
    Do we desperately need improvements?
    Absolutely.
    Are things marginally better than they were in the past?
    Absolutely.
    I'm so glad we have people like this trying to progress the conversation xx

    Love you both Peppermint and Bob but the comments regarding to Jasmine Croquett really take away to the whole point of the your video. Such a disservice to a strong black voice in Congress and you both didn't care to know (or edit) what her position is which is not a senator. You failed to give the context of that interaction, which was that MTG attacked Jasmine and AOC then wanted her reprimanded but the Republican in charge didn't do anything so Jasmine asked well if I say this "...bleach blonde..." is this allowed? So she never really attacked Marjorie directly but intelligently was proving a point that making body attacks shouldn't be allowed. It seems both of you didn't care to learn the situation or her explanation and you're basically shutting her down and also being misleading into what happened and how she was acting.

    I recently watched a video, I think it might have been Matt Baume's and it was about this group of protestors who would disrupt TV programs that refused to show gays as good characters or cut gay storylines etc., and how their group got a lot of attention at first, but they also needed to learn to deal directly with TV execs and studio employees who could actually put their demands into place. Pep is right- it takes a mixture of respectability and disruption to get change made

Also want to add that I saw red when they gave Representative Crocket the angry black woman treatment. Literally, text book racist angry black woman treatment caught on film. SMH...

    As a white woman, it’s bizarre to me when white people (when discussing the n-word with er or a) say “it’s not racist for white people to use it” or in general defend other white people’s racist language. First of all, yes it is. Don’t say it. It’s really easy to drop that ish from your vocabulary. I promise. Second of all, I grew up processing (sometimes unintentional) racism from my family and community. Because of being called out for my racist, problematic, and harmful statements and behavior throughout my life, I’m now a better person and better able to fully stand by other people regardless of our differences. They didn’t owe me that, but they gifted me with their time and knowledge, and I’m better for it. My point for white people is calm down, ease up on the defensiveness, and take a minute to listen. Other people around you are going to feel better, but you’re going to feel better as well.

    I agree Peppermint. Representative Crockett was absolutely right for calling that human out for the hatred she constantly spews out. 100%. The thing is there’s so much to call her out on and so many poignant ways to do it. No need for Representative Crockett to discuss her body. With all that being said, get her hate speech and senseless harm to people because she has an unnecessary platform off my timeline, and thank you for getting us one step closer to that, Representative Crockett.

    Amanda Seales receives a lot of backlash because people are reacting to her behavior, or rather not putting up with a rude attitude. There is testimony from people who worked with And for her and for some reason it seems to be ignored. Although I respect her as an intellect, scholar, and philanthropist I do think she should be nicer to the people around her because people are allowed to not like someone. Clearly she has habits of not being as kind as what she demands from other people. If you look hard enough, you can find peoples stories and understand why people are starting to not like her. I can imagine if she treats her employees that way she treats her peers similarly. This is something that does not align with the persona she is trying to demand from other people. I still love Amanda Seales but I can recognize other peoples input.

      When MTG commented on Jasmine Crockett's eyelashes, it wasn't put on official record despite her and AOC requesting it. There was massive pushback from Republicans both inside and outside the building against holding MTG responsible for her own actions in any way. That's what Peppermint means MTG doesn't get any pushback - just because people online hate her doesn't mean shit when she doesn't get pushback in any true meaningful way.
