Chasten Buttigieg in Conversation With Carrie Brownstein
Chasten Buttigieg, bespectacled teacher, LGBTQ+ activist, and hubby to US Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, will shimmy into Portland in celebration of I Have Something to Tell You — For Young Adults, a YA adaptation of his bestselling memoir. The tome details his upbringing as a closeted gay youth in a rural Midwestern town in the aughts, which, as a fellow millennial, I can predict was a total pain in the ass. In a delightfully oddball pairing, Buttigieg will chat with riot grrrl icon Carrie Brownstein, founding member of Sleater-Kinney and author of Hunger Makes Me a Modern Girl.
