Kenyetta's Peer Review
A Drag Brunch is an event in which drag kings and drag queens perform for an audience while the audience feasts on typical brunch foods and drinks.[1][2] Drag brunches are especially popular in cities like New York City, Miami, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Quebec, and New Orleans.[1] '''I think you could have a paragraph break here. Then start with the historian.Drag historian and New York University professor, Joe E. Jeffreys, believes that drag brunch’s rise in popularity in recent years is due to LGBTQ venues, such as Lucky Cheng’s, Lips NYC, and Club 82, that arose between the 1950s and 1990s.[1] In an article published on FoodandWine.com, Jeffery's claimed that these venues have the ability to expose people to drag, who might not have encountered it before.[1] I am not sure if in the encyclopedic style you have to cite the article in your sentence as well so you may be able to take out the website name. It works either way. I think your lead is strong and lets folks know exactly what they need to know from the first sentence.'''

“[People] are able to sit at drag brunch and have a lovely spinach frittata and Bloody Mary while learning this lesson through observation. They start to understand that gender and drag aren't these scary things,” said Jeffreys in an interview with FoodandWine.com.[1][3] “It’s fun and festive like brunch can be.”[1]

In an articled titled "Dragging Herself To Brunch" published on NewHavenIndependent.org, Shawn Bodey, also known by his drag persona Robin Banks, describes drag brunch as dinner theater but for brunch.[4] According to Bodey, dancing, singing, and jokes about the gender binary, are some of the things one could expect to see at a drag brunch.[4][3]

'''Could you put the below paragraph in a section about special types of drag brunches? I think it would work'''

In some places, such as San Antonio, Texas, gospel drag brunches are also starting to become increasingly more popular.[5] In addition to a food, drinks, and the usual performances one would expect to see at a drag brunch, gospel drag brunches also feature performers in choir robes doing renditions of classic gospel songs.[6][7] The drag venue Lips, which is based in New York City but has locations across the country, first started gospel drag brunches in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 2007.[6][7] In an article published on SouthFloridaGayNews.com, gospel drag brunch performer Nicolette describes the event as "cross-dressing for Jesus."

'''Haadiza, overall I think your article looks pretty solid. Your sources are strong and aid you in explaining the topic. I think you have a strong lead. I made just a few grammatical edits with commas.''' — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kdwhit (talk • contribs) 00:39, 20 April 2018 (UTC) Kdwhit (talk) 01:10, 20 April 2018 (UTC)Kdwhit (talk) 01:11, 20 April 2018 (UTC)Kenyetta
