SUMMARY
On this episode of Create for Change, I sit down with Kymon Warman, a dedicated content creator and activist. Kymon opens up about his journey of self-discovery, navigating his identity as a queer person of color while growing up in a predominantly white suburb of Kansas City, Missouri.
We explore his impactful presence on TikTok, where his authentic, educational content inspires others to embrace their own journeys of self-discovery. Kymon also reflects on the complexities of coming out, the evolution of his relationship with family (that he has documented online), and how the power of community has fueled his growth.
