Sasha Velour Instagram – One of my favorite moments of filming in Oklahoma last fall was our visit to church. Yeah, it surprised me too! Being accepted as queer people in a religious space—a Catholic congregation no less—reminded me that the purpose of spirituality should be to unite people in service of community, to help those in need, to raise our voices and celebrate LIFE! That’s the role that drag has played in my life. The queer version of spirit isn’t tied up in fear and shame and judgement, but rather encourages us to see all people—no matter their identity—as good and worthy of inclusion…deserving of freedom (and a spotlight!).
Thank you to Father Joshua (@joshua_shawnee) and @st.jerometulsa for welcoming drag into your sacred space! Watch the EPIC and truly DIVINE season finale of @WereHere tonight on @HBO/@streamonmax | Posted on 01/Jun/2024 02:31:04
