Join Lou in conversation with Sab Samuel, AKA storytelling drag queen Aida H Dee. Sab founded Drag Queen Story Hour UK to inspire children to be whoever they want to be, in a safe space - the library. Sab tours with other drag queens, providing fun and interactive kids shows in libraries across the UK reading stories to children while teaching inclusivity.
Sab talks with us for #PrideMonth about:
- the importance of having diverse role models
- examples of drag throughout history and culture
- identity loss and respecting the way others identify
- the challenges of being a storytelling drag queen including dealing with trolling
- an inspiring story showing the impact of the storytelling
