I hold sacred space for my enemy because my enemy has hurt me permanently, but my enemy has also shown me who I am to my fullest, and they have challenged me to come out.
What happens when you blend spirituality, movement, and a deep sense of community? In this captivating episode of 'A Queer Chaplain', Bonnie Violet sits down with Hollywood Texas, also known as The Last Mojosexual. Hollywood Texas is a curator of sacred spaces, an ancestral storyteller, and a chosen healer of the First Gender. They bring a unique perspective on how to restore the long-lost language of life, which they call 'authentic movement'.
This isn't just about dance or physical expression; it's about reconnecting with our true selves and the world around us. Hollywood Texas shares their journey as an indigenous intersex and intergender individual, discussing the importance of dismantling oppressive structures that bind us to binary thinking. They talk about how sexuality transcends physical bodies and is deeply rooted in black lives and spiritual experiences.
Through their work as an illustrator, drag performer, and sacred intimate, Hollywood Texas aims to break down these barriers and return us to a sense of community and shared humanity. The conversation delves into the power of movement, not just in drag performances but in everyday life. Starting with something as simple as breath and pleasure in fitness practices, Hollywood Texas explains how movement can be a form of spiritual expression.
They also touch on the significance of multi-faith dialogues in understanding drag spirituality. This episode wraps up with a thought-provoking discussion on the 'intelligent heart' and the importance of trusting its guidance. Hollywood Texas's insights are both inspiring and challenging, making this episode a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersections of spirituality, identity, and social justice.
