For this zine contribution, I decided to choose a topic that I enjoy, which is the world of drag queens. This branch of entertainment is different than other stage acts, as the show is unique to the performer's past and interpretation of what cross-dressing is as an art. Sasha Velour, the winner of "RuPaul's Drag Race" Season 9, is an excellent example of an activist who uses her lifestyle to benefit others. Velour remarked that drag is "countercultural" and challenges traditional conservative views with its various styles. I learned more about how people belonging to the LGBTQ+ community in Russia suppress their lifestyles and behavior, as well as how celebrities like Velour establish charities to aid them.
