Desde Central, Las Reinas de Queens: Episodio 1. Santa, Madre, Reina

from Radio Ambulante · host My Cultura, Radio Ambulante and iHeartPodcasts

Lorena Borjas era la reina de las reinas. Nadie tenía más prestigio y autoridad entre la comunidad de mujeres trans latinas del barrio de Queens, en Nueva York. Borjas parecía estar en todas partes: en las calles, repartiendo condones a trabajadoras sexuales; en las cortes, acompañando a mujeres trans en peligro de ser deportadas; o en hospitales, ayudando a personas portadoras de VIH. Para las reinas de Queens, un mundo sin Lorena era impensable. Y cuando la perdieron se preguntaron: ¿qué haremos sin ella?Nuestro podcast de series, Central, tiene una nueva producción: Las Reinas de Queens, la historia de un grupo de mujeres trans de Queens, Nueva York, todas inmigrantes latinas. En diez episodios seguimos su lucha por el derecho a existir y prosperar frente a redadas, violencia y exclusión. Pero también las acompañamos a los shows de imitación y los concursos de belleza donde compiten entre ellas para convertirse en las nuevas reinas de Queens.Ya pueden escuchar los dos primeros episodios en el feed de Central.

No one had as much prestige and authority within the Latinx trans women’s community in the Queens’ neighborhood of New York City. Borjas seemed to be everywhere: on the streets, handing out condoms to sex workers; in the courts, supporting trans women facing deportation; or in hospitals, helping people living with HIV. For the queens of Queens, a world without Lorena was unthinkable. And when they lost her, they asked themselves—What will we do without her? Our podcast, Central, has a new series: The Queens of Queens, the story of a group of trans women from Queens, New York, all Latinx immigrants. Over ten episodes, we follow their fight for the right to exist and thrive in the face of raids, violence, and exclusion. But we also join them at drag shows and beauty pageants where they compete against each other to become the new queens of Queens. You can now listen to the first two episodes on Central's feed. New episodes every Thursday. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
