When Seattle drag queen Olivia LaGarce found herself locked out of her Facebook account, she created a Change.Org petition to raise awareness about the plight of drag performers, trans people, sex workers, the formerly abused, the stalked, and everyone else who, for whatever reason, don’t use their real name on Facebook. Now Olivia (new Facebbok name: David Owens) has come on to Transformations to symbolically do to my face what Facebook has been doing to thousands of people across the world. It’s PROTEST ART in action! Watch it now, join the discussion, and follow the link to sign the petition below.
