All Boys Aren’t Blue (Book Review and Author Interview)

Back from another unplanned hiatus… this week, I bring you a review and author interview.

What you are about to hear is an interview that I did with Chris Jarvis as part of our It’s A Queer Thang podcast when we interviewed George M Johnson, author of All Boys Aren’t Blue, which is an amazing memoir and has the delightful distinction of being one of the most challenged and banned books in the US.

All Boys Aren’t Blue and All Lawsuits Aren’t Equal -Interviews with George M. Johnson and PEN America- (September 1st, 2023)

In this episode, Chris and Kaylia tackle the idea of book bans.

Featuring an interview with “All Boys Aren’t Blue” author George M. Johnson, we talk about race, gender, censorship, and being one’s authentic self. We also chat with Nadine Farid Johnson, a PEN America lawyer who breaks down some of the legal and long-term censorship issues in school libraries.

Plus “death months,” “throbbing members,” and the “danger” of joyful gay sex. Enjoy!
