Lemon Grove native Lalo Alcaraz has long been an advocate for better representation of Latinos in America. Now, it's his day job. 

He got his start as an editorial cartoonist at San Diego State University's student newspaper The Daily Aztec before going on to create the first nationally-syndicated, politically-themed Latino daily comic strip, "La Cucaracha." More recently, he’s worked as a cultural consultant on the Pixar film “Coco” and the upcoming animated Nickelodeon show, “The Casagrandes.”

Lights. Glitz. Glamour. 

These are only a few things people associate with Drag Artists. 

I meeaaaan, it also might be the dramatic makeup, unmatched charisma, the dazzling costumes, and their warm and welcoming demeanors. 

Welcome to the Drag Diaries. I am your host, Faith Thomas, and I love drag. The art and history of Drag culture fascinate me and the artists are no exception. I wanted to see the personality behind the persona we see on stage, to dig and know them a little more. 

Each episode, I will invite a different drag artist onto the show, sitting them down for an interview. We’ll talk about pop culture, drag culture, who they are, everything. Nothing is off limits. Nothing is off the table.

So, join us on the Drag Diaries, which you can stream on Soundcloud and Anchor. More streaming services are coming soon. I’ll catch you on the next one. Until then, stay safe, fabulous and confident.
