I'm not afraid to die. What I'm afraid of is becoming irrelevant, or invisible in my culture and in my society today.” Speaking on the global theme of “shock” in this CreativeMornings/Austin event from October 2015, Aralyn Hughes, a pioneer for women’s rights and self-proclaimed “Queen of Weird,” takes us on a colorful, poignant, and shocking journey through her incredible life. Whether it was teaching students about sex in a time when such topics were taboo, being among the first women in the US to obtain a legal abortion, or driving around Austin in her banana-topped art car, Aralyn Hughes makes a habit out of disrupting social norms. And the world is better for it.This episode was made possible by our friends at MailChimp and Media Temple.
