“It’s taken me a while to actually call myself a drag queen because I felt like that term could not be mine,” said Laura Plad, who developed an interest in drag at age 11. “I never thought I would get into it myself because drag wasn’t for people like me.”

Journalists can get reminiscent about our first jobs. The characters. The stories. The newsrooms themselves. This project, documenting 100+ newspaper newsrooms in rural Kansas, is not that. poynter.org/business-work/20…

I’ve always said journalists hold a lot for all of us and we should recognize that more.
This is no easy decision, but it’s important for all of us to see, our stories matter and our work matters, but it’ll still be there.
We need to choose us, and that’s ok.
