Who are the chicks that make up the funk movement, and where are they? Funk has always been a form of protest, just as being a woman is.

The testimonies come from transgender and cisgender women who navigate this universe in different roles, such as singers, DJs, beat-makers, producers, entrepreneurs, rappers, and dancers, and also from drag queens.
