December 1st marks International World AIDS Day and on this episode of Hey, Cis!, 'Sparking Passion from Pain with Deva Station', we commemorate the day with a very special guest, Deva Station.
Seven feet tall in hair and heels, and an attitude through the roof, Deva is an Elder of the Halifax Drag Community and loves to recognize and help new and upcoming talent as the Ultimate Drag Auntie.
Deva is also HIV positive and shares with us the dark moments after she was diagnosed as HIV positive; and how it was the best thing to ever happen to her. She advocates frequently to stop the stigma, encourage testing and says more education in schools is needed.

A beyond binary journey to being a better human. Join our head-on conversation about current affairs and gender-based issues affecting transgender and non-binary youth, students, and adults within Canada.
Hosts Cyn (she/her) and Isaac (he/they) give arts, culture, doers & dreamers a beyond binary twist in this Atlantic Canadian conversational talk show; breaking down cis-normative bias, smashing stigma, and fostering a greater connection between cisgender and trans, and non-binary communities.
