Queering Politics with Davis Darusman

In this episode, we sit down with Davis Mendoza Darusman (he/him) — community organizer, creative, and Justice of the Peace candidate — to talk about queering local politics in Houston.

We discuss eviction diversion programs, virtual court access, private debt collection fees, and how JP courts directly impact queer, trans, immigrant, and working-class communities. Davis also shares the story behind “Panning for Love” his community organizing work, and why love and accessibility are at the center of his platform.

If politics feels overwhelming, this episode is a reminder: local change starts with us.
