5 - En Pointe and En Vogue

CW: Mentions of homophobia, transphobia, and violence.

We're back! Kara and Kaley chat about their favorite cringeworthy reality tv shows before jumping into this week's theme: Dance! In this episode, Kaley shares the history of "Voguing", NYC's Ballroom scene and the impact of the notable film, "Paris is Burning"...plus there's a heated debate about who would win in a Kaley vs. Kara dance off. Next, Kara shares details about the remarkable life and accomplishments of Maria Tallchief, America's Prima Ballerina. We learn how Maria felt about being labeled as an "American Indian Ballerina", rather than a Ballerina that happened to be Native American which leads to a converation about our own feelings when it comes to being labeled as artists who are Native.
