In this episode Jill, Laiya, and Aja talk to Ashon Crawley. Ashon is a writer, artist and teacher, exploring the intersection of performance, blackness, queerness and spirituality. He’s also the Associate professor of Religious Studies and African-American and African Studies at the University of Virginia. Ashon shares what he’s learned as he’s navigated his love for the church and his sexuality.
