Brian Broome *#PRIDE #MotivationalMonday* Social Justice Power Hour!
Brian Broome
#pridemonth special rebroadcast of this extraordinary show with our dear friend & stalwart ally
in honor of his recent Lambda Literary Award for the extraordinary "Punch Me Up To The Gods"
This poetic & raw coming-of-age memoir about blackness, masculinity, & addiction introduced Brian as a powerful new talent, whose early years growing up in Ohio as a dark-skinned Black boy harboring crushes on other boys propel forward this gorgeous, aching, & unforgettable debut. His recounting of his experiences~ in all their cringe-worthy, hilarious, & heartbreaking glory~ reveal a perpetual outsider awkwardly squirming to find his way that shows the true depth of vulnerability for young Black boys that is often quietly near to bursting at the seams.
