Queer Salsa: How One Nonbinary Couple Leads and Follows

Season 5 Episode 7

In Austin, Texas, non-binary couple Audrey Guerrero and Angie Egea, a.k.a. “The Kueen & Queen of Non-Binary Afro Latin Dance,” performs and teaches classes that break down traditional gender roles in salsa dancing. While traditionally a man leads and a woman follows in salsa, these dancers take turns leading and following and often switch roles within one dance.
