*Please note that the pronouns used in this post are reflective of how each artist is typically referred to in articles, etc.* Having the chance to host a Drag King night with an all-Black cast of local kings and artists this BHM has got me thinking about those who came before us. These kings have certainly made history and have paved the way through art, activism, and more. Top Left: Gladys Bentley- lesbian Blues singer, pianist and drag performer at places such as the epically-named Clam House in NYC. She may have looked classy in that signature tux, but she wasn't afraid to get raunchy! Top Right: Stormé DeLarverie- I'm proud to share NOLA roots with this icon who eventually made her way to NYC and became a performer and MC at the Jewel Box Review- typically a king among queens! A self-proclaimed "guardian of the lesbians in the village" Stormé was a big part of the Stonewall uprising--some rumors say she may have even begun it! Bottom Left: Dred- This Haitian-American slick-moving gender-bending multi-disciplinary performance artist pop and locked her way into the audience's hearts and was a fixture at Mo B. Dick's Club Casanova party in the late 90's-- which eventually expanded to a world tour! This artist eventually started going by Light Ning and became a yoga teacher. Sadly, this incredible artist died young back in 2019. I was first introduced to Dred watching the documentary Venus Boyz (which I highly recommend) but some of you may have heard the name in a different context when-- (Bottom Right) King Molasses was compared to Dred when they were on their way to become the first King of Drag. As I was born and raised near DC, where King Molasses calls home , I feel some hometown kinship with them as well. From paying hommage to their Nigerian heritage to making Ira Glass weirdly sexy to lip syncing to ballads, all with spellbinding movement, King Molasses is one to embrace and embody the past, present, and future of drag. *A note to Montreal producers of drag shows- there is some great Black masc and gender non-conforming energy in this city, so book us! I'll tag some names in the comments ;)*

#2016 These two photos were taken just weeks apart in summer 2016. Needless to say, it was a bit of a transformative year for me. Glad to have "Mulan-ed" with time and often present somewhere between the two.
