At the 2024 Colorado Health Symposium in July, we were fortunate to be joined by a handful of leaders and performers from the Denver ballroom community. Ballroom, also known as ballroom scene or ball culture, came out of the Black trans and queer community as a response to racism, homophobia and transphobia. Its origins can be traced back to the 1860s. Over the years, it has evolved into an expression of LGBTQIA+ subculture, a fierce celebration of identity, artistry, community and resilience. It even paved the path for Drag performance. To say the performances left us feeling inspired and empowered would be an understatement 🌈 WARM COOKIES OF THE REVOLUTION
