Pride at the Brunch Table: Celebrating Our LGBTQ+ Guests

For seven seasons, Sista Brunch has celebrated Black women and Black gender-expansive people building careers in film, TV, and media. This Pride, we're spotlighting the LGBTQ+ guests who've made this show what it is — directors, producers, writers, performers, and creatives who pulled up a chair and brought their full selves to the table. Here they all are, in one place, with a link to hear or watch each conversation.
