We Gotta Do It...The Church Talk
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.
You can find out more about Ashon on his website ashoncrawley.com and on Instagram and Twitter @ashoncrawley and @ashoncrawleyart.
