Episode 5: Alex: No Alex, you're black

On today's episode we hear from Alex, an Egyptian-American, or American-Egyptian, depends on who you ask, woman from the Detroit area. She gives us the run-down of what it's like working for Chicago Votes encouraging young people to head to the polls. She also takes us through her journey of discovery as she moves from her white-flight community and explores her Egyptian culture. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @beyondqueerstories.
