I hope you are all making through the isolation (or in some cases, lack of isolation) okay. This week I am very excited to speak with Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Jr. for our segment on Art, Gender, and Sexuality. Bhutto’s last name may sound familiar to some of you, and yes, he is named for his grandfather, the People’s Party former Prime Minister of Pakistan in the 1970s. We will talk about Bhutto’s alter ego Faluda Islam, Queer Muslim Futurism, and I am pretty sure that we will at least touch on the current crises and how they factor into a queer Muslim artistic practice.
