Darien Marion-Burton. He/him. HBIC.
Wondering what HBIC stands for? You won’t question it once you listen to this episode.
Darien is a young Black gay man who has navigated life in the intersections. He speaks to us about that intersectionality, what is expected of him, and how he uses emotional intelligence and a certain level of code switching to work through those expectations. Darien is larger than life, insightful and hilarious. Our time with him flew by, and now we need him to help style us.
After listening to this episode, you’ll know what HBIC is, and you won’t question that Darien Marion-Burton is the HBIC.
