What does it mean when a store advertises itself as a collectively owned queer feminist collective that focuses on uplifting marginalized voices? We talk to Libertie from Firestorm Books and Coffee in Asheville, NC. We talk about what it means to be an anarchist thought and culture hub in North Carolina, what events they hold, and of course queer books.

For many queer people, coming out is not a one time thing. Whether its meeting new people, talking to family, or just coming to a greater understanding of one self, coming out can be a continual process. We talk to artist, barber, and activist, Frankie Love, a non-binary trans man about the importance of having family support and the power of getting a haircut that affirms your spirit. Frankie is also the spouse of burlesque artist, Rachel/Candi LeCoeur, and we talk to them about the ins and outs of polyamory.
