The season 2 finalists

In this series, Lawrence said drag has the potential to educate others about the queer community, adding: *“We have the responsibility to make sure that people in five years who are rewatching the season get to know more about queer history through us.”* Fellow finalist, Bimini, agreed, saying: *“I think Drag Race is the crossover that can have those conversations and can change people’s minds…Drag is political. No matter what. Drag came from a place of protest – and that should always continue no matter how mainstream it gets. What we’re trying to do is advocate for social change and social justice.”*
