dlr-2645	Germann, Olivia	Gender Performance: From the Freak Show to Modern Drag	2016	11	.pdf	application/pdf	3873	213	70	Drag queens choose to be drag queens, and, while some drag queens, like Carmen Carrera and Kenya Michaels, have come out as trans, drag does not disqualify the existence of transpeople; rather, drag queens offer their voices and support for those fighting against gender stereotypes for men, women, non-binary, and transpeople everywhere. By examining some of the modern elements of drag, it is possible to see how these performers circumvented the laws, preju- dices, and discrimination aimed towards them to create a booming industry where drag queens appear on national television and are treated with the respect that they had previously been denied.	cache/dlr-2645.pdf	txt/dlr-2645.txt
