In this Pride szn special episode of The Star Within, Jazzy, Davon, and DB unpack the complexities of DL (down-low) culture, queer identity, and masculinity across Black, Latino, and Asian communities. They explore how patriarchy and white supremacy shape repression, secrecy, and shame—especially in queer men. The group honors the life and tragic death of Jonathan Joss, calling out systemic homophobia and the need for justice. They also celebrate queer icons like Hikaru Utada and Lil Nas X, and reflect on the power of authenticity. With humor and heart, they challenge societal norms and uplift queer joy as resistance.
