Jezebel Express Instagram – Now that I have your attention: the BURLESQUE TOP 50 voting closes in a few days! ✨ It has been meaningful for me to be on this list as an artist and activist in the past, because even burlesque is prone to fatphobia, and that is sometimes reflected in who is hired for high paying and high profile work. I’ve had to work HARD to be visible and have a microphone for my messaging that all bodies deserve respect,
Anyway, change can be hard to see because it happens so slowly, but I have taken heart in seeing people “make” this list that people appreciate for making changes in their community and in the world.
I want to encourage you to vote for whoever is in your sparkly little heart, and to especially pay attention to performers who be denied opportunities to rise through mainstream channels due to systemic oppression. This is OUR vote for what we want OUR community to look like. ❤️ I put a link in my bio— if you have not voted yet, don’t forget to do so! | Posted on 02/Dec/2023 00:06:39
