There are as many paths to exploring queer history as there are people who have lived it, and many legends we’ve nearly forgotten about who, in a more just world, would be household names. History can provide inspiration, and can also help us to avoid making the same damn mistakes again and again mistakes like forgetting that trans people of color were at the vanguard of gay liberation.
Pride is a time to celebrate, honor, and remember all of it, whether you’re trans, bi, ace, poly, pan, intersex, nonbinary, or anywhere else on the gender and sexual identity and expression spectrum. or just proud to support your queer friends.
Yes,
Sister Act is a classic, must-watch film, but in the sequel, Whoopi Goldberg’s character completes the metamorphosis that began in the first movie. (The growth!) She s able to see the students not as bad eggs, but as a room full of untapped potential. By actively changing the way she communicates with each and every one of them, she not only gets her point across but becomes an incredible mentor and teacher. 7 Paris is Burning
Paris is Burning offers a glimpse into the 1980s New York ballroom scene as well as an entrée to the Black and Latinx house mothers, drag queens, trans women, and voguers populating Harlem’s rich and burgeoning community. By highlighting the trials, triumphs, and tribulations of Venus Xtravaganza, Danni Xtravaganza, Dorian Corey, Octavia St. Laurent, Pepper LaBeija, Willi Ninja, and others, this film gives a handful of queer POCs the mic and an opportunity to tell part of their much larger story.
