Listen to the animated lesbian-Filipna-Canadian story-teller Catherine Hernandez tell the tale of the girl with the 'stache.



From Hernandez' website:

Catherine Hernandez is a proud queer woman of colour, radical mother, activist, theatre practitioner, burlesque performer, writer, the Artistic Director of Sulong Theatre Company and the owner of Out and About Home Daycare.

Yes: the owner of Out and About Home Daycare.

Below is Hernandez at her daycare with a hijacked audience (image from her twitter page) reading a fellow Canadian multicultural transsexual's children's book (catch them while they're young) The Boy and the Bindi.

And here she is in her pretty pink dress protesting Charlottetown Junior Public School's last minute cancellation of her book reading for preschoolers. This was her daughter's former school in Scarborough, a suburb of Toronto.

But your friendly neighborhood daycare story-teller isn't as pleasant as she looks.
