What does it mean to rewrite the narrative—on your own terms?
In this episode of The Queerest Podcast, host Andraé BVR is joined by Marie-Adélina de la Ferrière—equalpride’s Community Editor and your favorite Lovable Trans Auntie—to talk Black trans joy, storytelling as survival, and the radical power of being seen. From the media myths she’s helping dismantle to the unlikely journey of acceptance from her 80-year-old Haitian grandfather, Marie-Adélina opens up about family, advocacy, and becoming the role model she never had growing up.
This episode is a celebration of growth, generational healing, and the everyday magic of showing up—loud, soft, and everything in between.
