Two-spirit artist L. Frank: "Unveiling What Has Already Been There"

Artist and Indigenous language advocate L. Frank (pronoun: pó) describes pó connection to the place that pó was born, through pó connection to pó Indigenous ancestors and artistic practice. Frank also discusses pó relationship to the term two-spirit and other gender-expansive terminology.
[Editor’s Note: L. Frank’s pronoun is pó from the Tongva language, conveying two-spirit and Indigenous identity nuances the English language cannot.]
