The Ballrooms from India to Wales getting tens across the board

QueerAF | Inspiring LGBTQIA+ stories told by emerging queer creatives

“Ballroom is liberation, it's queer history, it's trans history, it's power, it's fashion, it's sex, it's dance, it's music, it's love, it's hate, it's everything that you need in order to survive as a queer person in this world, especially as a queer person of colour.”

You may know ballroom from the legendary show “Pose” or “Paris is Burning” but this beautiful home curated for and by queer icons is becoming a worldwide community, with queer communities of colour, finding safety and unity in these spaces.

There’s nothing more queer than doing something because no-one else will. That is the story off Ballroom - from it’s New York blossoming, to as Anthony Pius will take us through in this episode of the QueerAF podcast with Trans+ History Week - it’s flourishing international growth from India to Wales.
