Southern Steep is back for Season 4, kicking it off with an amazing guest, Joelle Espeut, Director of Programming of The Normal Anomaly Initiative, Inc., a Houston based organization centering Black, queer plus persons to overcome barriers, end stigma and problematic narratives to actualize a new normal. Nicole is joined by a new co-host, Justin, and the pair dive into discussions on creating new norms, cultivating partnerships, celebrating community strengths and joy, addressing social determinants of health, and more. This episode's Southern Charm highlights the TRUTH Project. Based in Houston, the Telling Real Unapologetic Through Healing (T.R.U.T.H.) Project is a non-profit organization whose mission is to educate and mobilize LGBTQ communities of color and their allies through social arts that promote mental, emotional, and sexual health.
